Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] thermal: power allocator: change how estimation code is called

The sustainable power value might come from the Device Tree or can be
estimated in run time. There is no need to estimate every time when the
governor is called and temperature is high. Instead, store the estimated
value and make it available via standard sysfs interface so it can be
checked from the user-space. Re-invoke the estimation only in case the
sustainable power was set to 0. Apart from that the PID coefficients
are not going to be force updated thus can better handle sysfs settings.

Signed-off-by: Lukasz Luba <lukasz.luba@....com>

v3:
- changed estimate_pid_constants to estimate_tzp_constants and related comments
- estimate the PID coefficients always together with sust. power
- added print indicating that we are estimating sust. power and PID const.
- don't use local variable 'sustainable_power'
