I like this code a lot. It is very helpful to have working sample AML 
code that implements a thermal zone. Could you elaborate on the 
additional components that are needed for this? Is this a standard cape 
(or whatever rpi calls it)? I assume the fan just switches between 0 and 
max rpm depending on the actual temp wrt the trip point?
