Thanks David for bringing this up. I hadn't noticed that this driver is
cheekily trying to do thermal management in ACPI using crafty
acpi_device_id match. ACPI thermal objects/methods must be used in the
firmware to do thermal management.

Pramod, can you remove the ACPI support or I can go ahead and post the
patch to do the same ?

It can't and shouldn't work if one can make it happen :)
