Thanks for picking up this patch :)

Sorry for being late with these, but here's a few comments..

This should probably do something if set_trips returns an error code; at least an error message, perhaps enable polling? I'm not exactly sure what safety features the thermal framework has in general if errors happen..

One interesting thing I noticed was that at least the bang-bang governor only acts if the temperature is properly smaller than (trip temp - hysteresis). So perhaps we should specify the non-tripping range as [low, high)? Or we could change bang-bang.

set_trips should also be called from temp_store and other places that modify values that affect the trip points.
