Yeah sorry, here's the commit id: 9c8647224e9fabb765019193aa43c054a638f808 I've also created a bug report with slightly more info here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218586 > Because the thermal zone becomes effectively tripless, it should be > registered with thermal_tripless_zone_device_register(). Cool I'll do that for v2. Thanks a lot for your feedback! Steve

Some laptops where the thermal control is handled by the EC may provide trip points that fail the kernels new validation, but still have working temperature sensors. An example of this is the Framework 13 AMD. This patch allows the thermal zone to still be registered without trip points if the trip points fail validation, allowing the temperature sensor to be viewed and used by the user.
