Well, I suspect maybe part of the problem is that since the symbol isn't migrated properly, it's not being not built when we don't need it. I did the migration and queued up a build, I should have some answers later today. -- Tom signature.asc Description: PGP signature

The thermal driver in not very useful in SPL anyway, right? As you pointed of-platdata is intended for TPL/SPL to avoid the overhead of DTB and libraries. If this option is enabled and the driver does not support it, the device won't be created in TPL/SPL but is should on U-Boot. In order to limit the drop to SPL can CONFIG_SPL_BUILD be used? Regarding the usefulness of im_thermal in SPL I can't comment. Well, sigh, step one is to finish the migration to Kconfig for IMX_THERMAL as it has a symbol, but it's still set in a ton of board config files. We only build thermal in SPL when SPL_THERMAL is set, so I assume this is about trying to use of-platdata in U-Boot proper too, to keep / further reduce the size of U-Boot itself to stay within size limits.

[PATCH] imx: mx6cuboxi: Disable CONFIG_IMX_THERMAL
This feature is incompatble with of-platdata since it uses the U_BOOT_DEVICE() macro. With of-platdata the only devices permitted are those created by dtoc. Drop this option for now, until the driver can be corrected.
