[PATCH V2 00/17] thermal: cpu_cooling: improve interaction with cpufreq core

From: 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 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:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/pm.git thermal/cooling

V1->V2:
- Name cpufreq cooling dev as cpufreq_cdev everywhere (Eduardo).
