Kernel requires CONFIG_THERMAL to be disabled to boot #16

Hi Sipeed developers, thanks for all your work on this!

I am doing some work to get this board configuration into Armbian as a community supported board, and along the way I have found an issue with the thermal configuration.

If the kernel configuration has CONFIG_THERMAL=y, it appears the temperature sensors on the Sipeed LonganPi 3H report incorrect temperature readings and trigger a thermal shutdown in early boot (when the CPU/GPU is cold).

I also booted the LPI3H_20240110_SD.img available on the Sipeed website and note that it does not have thermal configured in the kernel, and also doesn't report any temperature information through lm-sensors.

Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.

Turning thermal configuration on for kernel and booting the image triggers and immediate thermal shutdown when the kernel loads.

Is there a patch available (or being developed) that implements the CPU/GPU temperature sensors for this board? I am a little concerned running it (especially in early development) without visibility of the system temperatures.

Thanks :)

No patch yet. We'll check this later.

The thermal driver has some problem with mainline kernel now, it reads the wrong temprature of H618, so the kernel won't boot with thermal enabled successfully. If there's a solutions comes up, we will update the patch to this repo immediately.

I have also tried all of the images and all of them except the LPI3H_20240110_SD.img image causes the Lpi3h to freeze up under ANY load sometimes even just booting. In my case though the Lpi3h is pretty hot to touch even with heat sinks
