Yes, this can work with little bit change like below:

struct thermal_zone_params {
	const char *zone_name;
	int num_cdevs;
	struct thermal_bind_params[num_cdevs];
}; 

Where struct thermal_bind_params will be like this:
	{
	.cdev_name = "CPU"
	.trip_mask = 0x0F
	.weight = 70
	.lower = 2
	.upper = 4
	.sample_period = 1000 (1 ms)
	};

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Durga
