[PATCH v1] thermal/of: Introduce k-po, k-pu and k-i for a thermal zone

From: Finley Xiao
Date: Tue Aug 11 2020 - 08:31:48 EST


The default value for k_pu is:
2 * sustainable_power / (desired_temperature - switch_on_temp)
The default value for k_po is:
sustainable_power / (desired_temperature - switch_on_temp)
The default value for k_i is 10.

Even though these parameters of the PID controller can be changed
by the following sysfs files:
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/k_pu
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/k_po
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/k_i

But it's still more convenient to change the default values by devicetree,
so introduce these three optional properties. If provided these properties,
they will be parsed and associated with the thermal zone via the thermal
zone parameters.
