That makes sense; I see that it's max scalable frequency is also very low.

These are attached.

I ran a diff on the output of the thermal and cpufreq greps (the '.old' files
are from the bad kernel, '.log' from a working one):

$ diff cpufreq.log cpufreq.old 
13c13
< /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:2534000
---
> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:1013600
28c28
< /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:2534000
---
> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:1013600

As I noted above, the maximum scaling frequency is super low. That appears to
be the only difference here. As for the thermal output:

diff thermal.log thermal.old 
1c1
< /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/cur_state:0
---
> /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/cur_state:10
4c4
< /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device1/cur_state:0
---
> /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device1/cur_state:10
9a10,11
> /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/cdev0_trip_point:1
> /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/cdev1_trip_point:1
11,12c13
< /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/passive:0
< /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp:42000
---
> /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp:39000
14a16,17
> /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_1_temp:0
> /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_1_type:passive

There are quite a few differences, most notably the 4 trip point entries in the
bad kernel version that don't even exist in the good one, and as you noted,
mark 0C or 1C as the tripping temp.
