X is not thermometer. The thermometer is {-1, 0, 1, 2}. X is {0, 1, 2}.
All possible X valueswritten in the comments:

ar9003_hw_get_thermometer used only in ar9003_hw_thermometer_apply:

static void ar9003_hw_thermometer_apply(struct ath_hw *ah)
{
struct ath9k_hw_capabilities *pCap = &ah->caps;
int thermometer = ar9003_hw_get_thermometer(ah);
u8 therm_on = (thermometer < 0) ? 0 : 1;

REG_RMW_FIELD(ah, AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4,
AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4_THERM_ON_OVR, therm_on);
if (pCap->chip_chainmask & BIT(1))
REG_RMW_FIELD(ah, AR_PHY_65NM_CH1_RXTX4,
AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4_THERM_ON_OVR, therm_on);
if (pCap->chip_chainmask & BIT(2))
REG_RMW_FIELD(ah, AR_PHY_65NM_CH2_RXTX4,
AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4_THERM_ON_OVR, therm_on);

therm_on = (thermometer < 0) ? 0 : (thermometer == 0); /* X = 0 */
REG_RMW_FIELD(ah, AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4,
AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4_THERM_ON, therm_on);
if (pCap->chip_chainmask & BIT(1)) {
therm_on = (thermometer < 0) ? 0 : (thermometer == 1);
/* X = 1 */
REG_RMW_FIELD(ah, AR_PHY_65NM_CH1_RXTX4,
AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4_THERM_ON, therm_on);
}
if (pCap->chip_chainmask & BIT(2)) {
therm_on = (thermometer < 0) ? 0 : (thermometer == 2);
/* X = 2 */
REG_RMW_FIELD(ah, AR_PHY_65NM_CH2_RXTX4,
AR_PHY_65NM_CH0_RXTX4_THERM_ON, therm_on);
}
}

There is no X = -1.
