For thermal enabling on Hikey with CPU cooling device, how about below
change? I checked arch/arm/configs/multi_v7_defconfig, both
CONFIG_CPUFREQ_DT and CONFIG_CPU_THERMAL have been enabled in it.
These two drivers are quite common and used by many ARM platforms.

Enable this to plug hisilicon's thermal sensor driver into the Linux
thermal framework. cpufreq is used as the cooling device to throttle
