-If an ACPI thermal zone supports critical, passive, active[0] and active[1] at the same time,
-it may register itself as a thermal_zone_device (thermal_zone1) with 4 trip points in all.
-It has one processor and one fan, which are both registered as thermal_cooling_device.
-If the processor is listed in _PSL method, and the fan is listed in _AL0 method,
-the sys I/F structure will be built like this:
+ACPI thermal zone may support multiple trip points like critical, hot,
+passive, active. If an ACPI thermal zone supports critical, passive,
+active[0] and active[1] at the same time, it may register itself as a
+thermal_zone_device (thermal_zone1) with 4 trip points in all.
