Subject: Re: [PATCH v6 4/8] thermal:boost: Automatic enable/disable of BOOST
 feature

Dear Zhang, Eduardo,

> This patch provides auto disable/enable operation for boost. When any
> defined trip point is passed, the boost is disabled.
> In that moment thermal monitor workqueue is woken up and it monitors
> if the device temperature drops below 75% of the smallest trip point.
> When device cools down, the boost is enabled again.

> Changes for v6:
> - Disable boost only when supported and enabled
> - Protect boost related thermal_zone_device struct fields with mutex
> - Evaluate temperature trend during boost enable decision
> - Create separate methods to handle boost enable/disable
>   (thermal_boost_{enable|disable}) operations
> - Boost is disabled at any trip point passage (not only the non
> critical one)
> - Add stub definitions for cpufreq boost functions used when
>   CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is NOT defined.
> 
> Changes for v5:
> - Move boost disable code from cpu_cooling.c to thermal_core.c
>   (to handle_non_critical_trips)
> - Extent struct thermal_zone_device by adding overheated bool flag
> - Implement auto enable of boost after device cools down
> - Introduce boost_polling flag, which indicates if thermal uses it's
> predefined pool delay or has woken up thermal workqueue only to wait
> until device cools down.
> 
> Changes for v4:
> - New patch
