Pretty good work moving data out of your driver. Impressed.

I sent out a couple of comments, most are minor. Major part is on
duplication of of-thermal parser.

good stuff here too. Only concern is regarding 'type' property (possible
to reuse compatible) and exynos specific data.

Apologize for late answer.
