An interrupt fires as each thermal zone exceeds the trip temperature and
an interrupt fires again when it goes below that temperature.
Here's my new test script:

for i in $(seq 0 9) ; do
	TYPE=$(cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone$i/type)
	TEMP=$(cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone$i/temp)
	TRIP=$(cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone$i/trip_point_0_temp)
	echo "$TYPE = $TEMP. trip = $TRIP"
done

cpu-thermal1 = 56000. trip = 51000
cpu-thermal2 = 57000. trip = 51000
cpu-thermal3 = 56000. trip = 51000

I'm not sure how to tell if the frequency is dynamically changed during
runtime on arm. x86-64 shows this information in /proc/cpuinfo. Here's
the /proc/cpuinfo on the Nexus 5:
