When multiple thermal zones are bound to the same cooling device, multiple
kernel threads may want to update the cooling device state by calling
thermal_cdev_update(). Having cdev not protected by a mutex can lead to a race
condition. Consider the following situation with two kernel threads k1 and k2:
Thread k1 Thread k2
||
|| call thermal_cdev_update()
|| ...
|| set_cur_state(cdev, target);
call power_actor_set_power() ||
... ||
instance->target = state; ||
cdev->updated = false; ||
|| cdev->updated = true;
|| // completes execution
call thermal_cdev_update() ||
// cdev->updated == true ||
return; ||
\/
time
k2 has already looped through the thermal instances looking for the deepest
cooling device state and is preempted right before setting cdev->updated to
true. Now, k1 runs, modifies the thermal instance state and sets cdev->updated
to false. Then, k1 is preempted and k2 continues the execution by setting
cdev->updated to true, therefore preventing k1 from performing the update.
Notice that this is not an issue if k2 looks at the instance->target modified by
k1 "after" it is assigned by k1. In fact, in this case the update will happen
anyway and k1 can safely return immediately from thermal_cdev_update().
This may lead to a situation where a thermal governor never updates the cooling
device. For example, this is the case for the step_wise governor: when calling
the function thermal_zone_trip_update(), the governor may always get a new state
equal to the old one (which, however, wasn't notified to the cooling device) and
will therefore skip the update.

Thermal zones created using thermal_zone_device_create() may not have
tzp. As the governor gets its parameters from there, allocate it while
the governor is bound to the thermal zone so that it can operate in it.
In this case, tzp is freed when the thermal zone switches to another
governor.

The power allocator governor currently requires that the thermal zone
has at least two passive trip points. If there aren't, the governor
refuses to bind to the thermal zone.
This commit relaxes that requirement. Now the governor will bind to all
thermal zones regardless of how many trip points they have.

The power allocator governor currently requires that a sustainable power
is passed as part of the thermal zone's thermal zone parameters. If
that parameter is not provided, it doesn't register with the thermal
zone.
While this parameter is strongly recommended for optimal performance, it
doesn't need to be mandatory. Relax the requirement and allow the
governor to bind to thermal zones that don't provide it by estimating it
from the cooling devices' power model.

The thermal code uses int, long and unsigned long for temperatures
in different places.
Using an unsigned type limits the thermal framework to positive
temperatures without need. Also several drivers currently will report
temperatures near UINT_MAX for temperatures below 0°C. This will probably
immediately shut the machine down due to overtemperature if started below
0°C.
'long' is 64bit on several architectures. This is not needed since INT_MAX °mC
is above the melting point of all known materials.
Consistently use a plain 'int' for temperatures throughout the thermal code and
the drivers. This only changes the places in the drivers where the temperature
is passed around as pointer, when drivers internally use another type this is
not changed.

The power allocator governor uses ftrace to output a bunch of internal
data for debugging and tuning. Currently, the requested power it
outputs is the "weighted" requested power, that is, what each cooling
device has requested multiplied by the cooling device weight. It is
more useful to trace the real request, without any weight being
applied.
This commit only affects the data traced, there is no functional change.

In situations where there is an uneven number of cooling devices, the
division of power among them can lead to a milliwatt being dropped on
the floor due to rounding errors. This doesn't sound like a lot, but
some devices only grant the lowest cooling device state for their
maximum power. So for instance, if the granted_power is the maximum
power and all devices are getting their maximum power, one would get
max_power - 1, making it choose cooling device state 1, instead of 0.
Round the division to make the calculation more accurate.

The power allocator governor is a thermal governor that controls system
and device power allocation to control temperature. Conceptually, the
implementation divides the sustainable power of a thermal zone among
all the heat sources in that zone.
This governor relies on "power actors", entities that represent heat
sources. They can report current and maximum power consumption and
can set a given maximum power consumption, usually via a cooling
device.
The governor uses a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller
driven by the temperature of the thermal zone. The output of the
controller is a power budget that is then allocated to each power
actor that can have bearing on the temperature we are trying to
control. It decides how much power to give each cooling device based
on the performance they are requesting. The PID controller ensures
that the total power budget does not exceed the control temperature.
