All Theobroma boards use a ti,amc6821 as fan controller.
It normally runs in an automatically controlled way and while it may be
possible to use it as part of a dt-based thermal management, this is
not yet specified in the binding, nor implemented in any kernel.

Newer boards already don't contain that #cooling-cells property, but
older ones do. So remove them for now, they can be re-added if thermal
integration gets implemented in the future.

This has been tripping the dt-binding check for a while and since we've 
somehow not linked the fan controller to cpufreq for thermal throttling 
just yet, this was essentially not used.

As far as I know, no DT we wrote for customers had that linked either, 
so I think this is the most straightforward way to handle this rather 
than documenting this properly in the dt-binding and making sure the 
kernel driver actually supports it. As said, we can always revisit this 
later on if need be.

Therefore,
