I don't think it's needed to mount rootfs. (Not merged until clarified). -Olof

It's not needed to mount the rootfs, but this is needed on one of our SoCs to store the bin, and thus the cpufreq settings to apply, and on all our SoCs to store the calibration data for the thermal sensor, which in turn is used for thermal throttling. Both are important enough so that they don't depend on a module being loaded to me, but I'm not really sure what the policy is here.

Yeah, thermal should likely be enabled without rootfs/modules, so that's ok in this case. Merged now, thanks! -Olof
