Eduardo Valentin 1c9573a40c thermal: fix cpu_cooling max_level behavior
As per Documentation/thermal/sysfs-api.txt, max_level
is an index, not a counter. Thus, in case a CPU has
3 valid frequencies, max_level is expected to be 2, for instance.

The current code makes max_level == number of valid frequencies,
which is bogus. This patch fix the cpu_cooling device by
ranging max_level properly.

Eduardo Valentin 39d99cff76 thermal: cpu_cooling: introduce of_cpufreq_cooling_register
This patch introduces an API to register cpufreq cooling device
based on device tree node.

The registration via device tree node differs from normal
registration due to the fact that it is needed to fill
the device_node structure in order to be able to match
the cooling devices with trip points.

Lan Tianyu 044d5c26da Thermal/cpu_cooling: Return directly for the cpu out of allowed_cpus in the cpufreq_thermal_notifier()
cpufreq_thermal_notifier() is to change the cpu's cpufreq in the allowed_cpus mask
when associated thermal-cpufreq cdev's cooling state is changed. It's a cpufreq policy
notifier handler and it will be triggered even if those cpus out of allowed_cpus has
changed freq policy.

cpufreq_thermal_notifier() checks the policy->cpu. If it belongs to allowed_cpus,
change max_freq(default to 0) to the desire cpufreq value and pass 0 and max_freq
to cpufreq_verify_within_limits() as cpufreq scope. But if not, do nothing and
max_freq will remain 0. This will cause the cpufreq scope to become 0~0. This
is not right. This patch is to return directly after finding cpu not belonging
to allowed_cpus.

Shawn Guo 24c7a38172 thermal: cpu_cooling: fix 'descend' check in get_property()
The variable 'descend' is initialized as -1 in function get_property(),
and will never get any chance to be updated by the following code.

	if (freq != CPUFREQ_ENTRY_INVALID && descend != -1)
		descend = !!(freq > table[i].frequency);

This makes function get_property() return the wrong frequency for given
cooling level if the frequency table is sorted in ascending.  Fix it
by correcting the 'descend' check in if-condition to 'descend == -1'.

Zhang Rui fc35b35cbe Thermal: cpufreq cooling: fix parsing per_cpu cpufreq_frequency_table
cpufreq cooling uses different frequencies as different cooling states.

But the per_cpu cpufreq_frequency_table may contain duplicate,
invalid entries, and it may be in either ascending or descending order.
And currently, code for parsing the per_cpu cpufreq_frequency_table
is used in several places and inconsistent.

Now introduce new code to
1. get the maximum cooling states
2. translate cooling state to cpu frequency
3. translate cpu frequency to cooling state
in one place,
with the correct logic of handling per_cpu cpufreq_frequency_table.

Amit Daniel Kachhap 0236141837 thermal: add generic cpufreq cooling implementation
This patchset introduces a new generic cooling device based on cpufreq
that can be used on non-ACPI platforms.  As a proof of concept, we have
drivers for the following platforms using this mechanism now:

 * Samsung Exynos (Exynos4 and Exynos5) in the current patchset.
 * Freescale i.MX (git://git.linaro.org/people/amitdanielk/linux.git imx6q_thermal)

There is a small change in cpufreq cooling registration APIs, so a minor
change is needed for Freescale platforms.

Brief Description:

1) The generic cooling devices code is placed inside driver/thermal/*
   as placing inside acpi folder will need un-necessary enabling of acpi
   code.  This code is architecture independent.

2) This patchset adds generic cpu cooling low level implementation
   through frequency clipping.  In future, other cpu related cooling
   devices may be added here.  An ACPI version of this already exists
   (drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c) .But this will be useful for
   platforms like ARM using the generic thermal interface along with the
   generic cpu cooling devices.  The cooling device registration API's
   return cooling device pointers which can be easily binded with the
   thermal zone trip points.  The important APIs exposed are,

   a) struct thermal_cooling_device *cpufreq_cooling_register(
        struct cpumask *clip_cpus)
   b) void cpufreq_cooling_unregister(struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev)

3) Samsung exynos platform thermal implementation is done using the
   generic cpu cooling APIs and the new trip type.  The temperature sensor
   driver present in the hwmon folder(registered as hwmon driver) is moved
   to thermal folder and registered as a thermal driver.

A simple data/control flow diagrams is shown below,

Core Linux thermal <----->  Exynos thermal interface <----- Temperature Sensor
          |                             |
         \|/                            |
  Cpufreq cooling device <---------------

TODO:
*Will send the DT enablement patches later after the driver is merged.

This patch:

Add support for generic cpu thermal cooling low level implementations
using frequency scaling up/down based on the registration parameters.
Different cpu related cooling devices can be registered by the user and
the binding of these cooling devices to the corresponding trip points can
be easily done as the registration APIs return the cooling device pointer.
The user of these APIs are responsible for passing clipping frequency .
The drivers can also register to recieve notification about any cooling
action called.
