[PATCH 00/17] thermal: cpu_cooling: improve interaction with cpufreq core

[Viresh Kumar]

Hi Guys,

The cpu_cooling driver is designed to use CPU frequency scaling to avoid
high thermal states for a platform. But it wasn't glued really well with
cpufreq core.

This series tries to improve interactions between cpufreq core and
cpu_cooling driver and does some fixes/cleanups to the cpu_cooling
driver.

I am a bit confused about which tree this series should go through, PM
or thermal.

This series has dependency on few other patches which are already merged
in the PM [1] tree and thermal [2] tree. As this is 4.12 material, all
of this should go through only one tree to avoid conflicts.

I assume that one of Rafael and Rui have to drop the existing patch(es)
from their trees and let the other one apply all of these. I would let
you guys decide on that. Sorry for the trouble.

I have tested it on ARM 32 (exynos) and 64 bit (hikey) boards and have
pushed them for 0-day build bot and kernel CI testing as well. We should
know if something is broken with these.

@Javi: It would be good if you can give them a test, specially because
of your work on the "power" specific bits in the driver.

Pushed here as well:
