[OpenPower-Firmware] P8 overtemp behavior

Hi Team,

I've got a question regarding a P8 overtemp behavior.    After processors
reach 85C (OPEN_POWER_PROC_DVFS_TEMP_DEG_C) OCC start frequency throttling.
 I'm trying to figure out what would happen if temperature continues to
grow? (broken fan/ condition).

POWER8 User manual says: "Automated hardware thermal overtemperature
protection is not supported. The real-time OCC firmware accomplishes this
function."

Is there any emergency power off mechanism due to overtemp on P8?

thanks,

regards,
Sergey
