The tzts1~6 are just thermal sensor in the 8183 SoC,
The purpose of adding the six thermal is to support svs driver to read
thermal sensor in the SoC.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10923289/

The IPA cooling SoC will be applied by cpu_thermal which is the max
sensor value of tzts1~6.
In Document/devicetree/binding/thermal/thermal.txt, I find the statement
that the trip and cooling-map is required for thermal zone.
If we don't set trip and cooling map, it will set disable mode
"tz->mode = THERMAL_DEVICE_DISABLED"
in the drivers/thermal/of-thermal.c
But it still work to read the temperature of thermal zone.
And we don't need to let these thermal zone to bind cooler.
So, we use these way to provide temperature node for svs to read
temperature by thermal_zone_get_zone_by_name only.
