Subject: [PATCH V3 00/17] thermal: cpu_cooling: improve interaction with cpufreq core

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. For example clipped-cpus is copied from the policy
structure and its much better to use the policy->cpus (or related_cpus)
fields directly as they may have got updated. Not that things were
broken before this series, but they can be optimized a bit more.

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.

@Lukasz: It would be good if you can give them a test, specially because
of your work on the "power" specific bits in the driver. This series
already has the improvements you suggested.

Pushed here as well:

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

V2->V3:
- Additional check to guarantee that policy is valid.
- Initialize freq-table and cpufreq_cdev->policy fields before they are
  used by the power-cooling functionality.
- Thanks Lukasz for testing out and suggesting these changes.

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