Hi Daniel,

I tested your branch, unfortunately with the same result for 
rcar_gen3_thermal. Manipulation of emul_temp file do not trigger 
actions.

If I on-top of your branch revert:

    409ca214f4c6bd5b ("thermal/of: Remove old OF code")
    7b43f76d3428227e ("thermal/drivers/rcar: Switch to new of API")

I'm able to 'restore' the behavior where I can change the cooling state 
and trigger the critical trip point using emul_temp to shutdown the 
board.

As the change in question also effects the rcar_thermal sensor I gave 
that a try too. It have no cooling on this system I have so my only 
test-case is to write a temperature above the critical trip point to 
emul_temp as see if that shutdown the system.  And just as with 
rcar_gen3_thermal with your series nothing happens while with the two 
commits outline above reverted the system shuts down.

    echo 110000 > /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/emul_temp

If it's any help writing to emul_temp have some effect as the emulated 
temperature is read back from the temp sysfs while. For rcar_thermal 
where the critical trip point is 95 degrees,

    * With this series
    # grep . /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_*
    /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_hyst:0
    /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_temp:95000
    /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_type:critical
    # cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
    35000
    # echo 50000 > /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/emul_temp
    # cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
    50000
    # echo 110000 > /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/emul_temp
    # cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
    110000
    *** system alive ***

    * With this series and the two patches reverted or plain v5.19-rc4
    # grep .  /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_* 
    /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_hyst:0
    /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_temp:95000
    /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_0_type:critical
    # cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
    35000
    # echo 50000 > /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/emul_temp
    # cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
    50000
    # echo 110000 > /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/emul_temp
    [  121.380054] thermal thermal_zone0: cpu-thermal: critical temperature reached, shutting down
    [  121.388482] reboot: HARDWARE PROTECTION shutdown (Temperature too high)
    *** system shuts down ***

And to make it more problematic I don't think the lack of action is 
limited to the emul_temp interface. With rcar_thermal I lowered the 
critical trip point value to 45C and used the cpuburn application to 
generate load and raise the temperature.

The result mirrors the findings above, with your branch the system do 
not trigger the critical trip point. If I revert the two commits or run 
plain v5.19-rc4, once the temperature reaches 45C the critical trip 
point kicks in and shuts down the system.

I hope this helps, I'm sorry I can't find the real issue diging in the 
core changes. I'm happy to help trying to find the root cause for this 
and I think the idea behind the new API is good.
