[PATCH v1 01/18] thermal: core: Change governor name to const char pointer

From: AngeloGioacchino Del Regno
Date: Tue Jan 30 2024 - 06:13:38 EST


All users are already assigning a const char * to the `governor_name`
member of struct thermal_zone_params and to the `name` member of
struct thermal_governor.
Even if users are technically wrong, it just makes more sense to change
this member to be a const char pointer instead of doing the other way
around.
