This part of the code from qcom-spmi-adc-tm5.c was trigerring if I
define more than 4 channels, and looking at downstream I can also see
that only 4 zones are registered properly with adc_tm, the rest is
registered with "qcom,adc-tm5-iio" which skips from what I could tell
basically all the HW bits and only registering the thermal zone.


	ret = adc_tm5_read(chip, ADC_TM5_NUM_BTM,
			   &channels_available, sizeof(channels_available));
	if (ret) {
		dev_err(chip->dev, "read failed for BTM channels\n");
		return ret;
	}

	for (i = 0; i < chip->nchannels; i++) {
		if (chip->channels[i].channel >= channels_available) {
			dev_err(chip->dev, "Invalid channel %d\n", chip->channels[i].channel);
			return -EINVAL;
		}
	}

With passive trip point it wouldn't even do anything now, but at what
temp do you think it should do what? I'd definitely need more time to
understand more of how the thermal setup works in downstream Android,
and then replicate a sane configuration for mainline with proper
temperatures, cooling, etc.
