I had a good hunt around when I was doing all the Linux work in a Cyclone V
based product a year ago and I could not find any way to control things
like this.

Perhaps it is all due to Altera not having much experience with designing
non-FPGA devices (ie. SoCs) , or due to people trying to shoe-horn these
devices into products that Altera was not originally considering (eg.
consumer products) that there is little in the way of temperature
monitoring, power control, dynamic pin muxing and other things that you
tend to expect in a modern SOC.
