I had forgotten that hysteresis is enforced in DT.  Thanks for fixing
this!

I'd remove the warning.  It is an optional parameter, so there is no
need to warn about something going wrong.  As you say in the commit
log, it is ignored in the thermal subsystem and only used by some
sensors so no need to warn about it missing.

Other than that, I'm happy to see this merged.
