If it is supposed to be DT property, you need to solve my concerns of relying on specific implementation. First, you need to cover all possible actions, not reverse existing OS implementation. As I said before, If Linux decides to reboot by default, this property becomes useless. No, it must be some sort of enum defining desired allowed action or actions. Second, I don't think this is specific to this particular device, so should be rather common property shared among all thermal handlers (and in the future any other critical-condition-handler-devices).
