When converting the thermal-zones bindings to yaml the definition of the contribution property changed. The intention is the same, an integer value expressing a ratio of a sum on how much cooling is provided by the device to the zone. But after the conversion the integer value is limited to the range 0 to 100 and expressed as a percentage. This is problematic for two reasons. - This do not match how the binding is used. Out of the 18 files that make use of the property only two (ste-dbx5x0.dtsi and ste-hrefv60plus.dtsi) sets it at a value that satisfy the binding, 100. The remaining 16 files set the value higher and fail to validate. - Expressing the value as a percentage instead of a ratio of the sum is confusing as there is nothing to enforce the sum in the zone is not greater then 100. This patch restore the pre yaml conversion description and removes the value limitation allowing the usage of the bindings to validate.
