[RFC PATCH 1/2] thermal: Add a new trip type to use cooling device instance number

[Amit Daniel Kachhap]

This patch adds a new trip type THERMAL_TRIP_STATE_ACTIVE. This
trip behaves same as THERMAL_TRIP_ACTIVE but also passes the cooling
device instance number. This helps the cooling device registered as
different instances to perform appropriate cooling action decision in
the set_cur_state call back function.

Also since the trip temperature's are in ascending order so some logic
is put in place to skip the un-necessary checks.
