Since the Hardware supports the programming of thresholds, I added this support
in the driver. I had to add new attributes, since there are no existing attributes,
that support these thresholds.
Could you please suggest any better way(s) of enabling this support ?
I can add documentation for these attributes in Doc/hwmon/sysfs-interface.

Thanks,
Durga
