[PATCH v4 1/6] thermal: Remove netlink support

From: Amit Kucheria
Date: Fri Oct 18 2019 - 04:52:17 EST


There are no users of netlink messages for thermal inside the kernel.
Remove the code and adjust the documentation.

=====================

-The framework includes a simple notification mechanism, in the form of a
-netlink event. Netlink socket initialization is done during the _init_
-of the framework. Drivers which intend to use the notification mechanism
-just need to call thermal_generate_netlink_event() with two arguments viz
-(originator, event). The originator is a pointer to struct thermal_zone_device
-from where the event has been originated. An integer which represents the
-thermal zone device will be used in the message to identify the zone. The
-event will be one of:{THERMAL_AUX0, THERMAL_AUX1, THERMAL_CRITICAL,
-THERMAL_DEV_FAULT}. Notification can be sent when the current temperature
-crosses any of the configured thresholds.
