Is this indeed plural or you want to program the next trip point as your
alarm temperature? If so, there was another patch floating around adding
set_trips() callback that would get passed in the low and high trip points for
the current temperature reading and you can use that data to program
alarms. Rockchip thermal driver uses it.
