I am trying to add this support for the platform DTS, for which the thresholds need to be configured at run time. In this case, the firmware is not involved. Also, the new thresholds are written into the h/w registers. So, everybody down the stack, will know that the trip points have moved. And notifications will be w.r.t the newly written thresholds only.
