It turned out that the Thermal subsystem (after rework done for v3.12)
is capable of providing hysteresis for BOOST.
For version of the patch up to v8 I had to modify the thermal core to
provide such functionality. Changes in core weren't accepted by Zhang
Rui.
Then I've looked again to the code and it turned out that proper
setting of Exynos4x12 data (like trigger levels and freq_clip_max) can
solve the problem in a much better way by using Exynos thermal
interrupts.
Another advantage is that those changes are done per device.

Some work on this driver is ongoing (mainly done by Bartek
Zolnierkiewicz). This BOOST change doesn't break anything and only
extend the current thermal code. Thereof it will not break anything.

The above list presents the development state of this particular patch
(thermal).
Up to v8 I had modified the thermal core. For v10 I've decided to use
proper Exynos data setting.
If in any doubt, please ask.
This last thermal patch of the series hinders this code to be applied
to cpufreq subsystem (Viresh had acked it some time ago and I hope that
he hasn't changed his mind :-) ).
