R.Durgadoss 4cb1872870 thermal: Add event notification to thermal framework
This patch adds event notification support to the generic
thermal sysfs framework in the kernel. The notification is in the
form of a netlink event.

And while touching that function definition do something about the disaster

Matthew Garrett 03a971a289 thermal: support forcing support for passive cooling
Due to poor thermal design or Linux driving hardware outside its thermal
envelope, some systems will reach critical temperature and shut down
under high load. This patch adds support for forcing a polling-based
passive trip point if the firmware doesn't provide one. The assumption
is made that the processor is the most practical means to reduce the
dynamic heat generation, so hitting the passive thermal limit will cause
the CPU to be throttled until the temperature stabalises around the
defined value.

UI is provided via a "passive" sysfs entry in the thermal zone
directory. It accepts a decimal value in millidegrees celsius, or "0" to
disable the functionality. Default behaviour is for this functionality
to be disabled.

Matthew Garrett b1569e99c7 ACPI: move thermal trip handling to generic thermal layer
The ACPI code currently carries its own thermal trip handling, meaning that
any other thermal implementation will need to reimplement it. Move the code
to the generic thermal layer.

Matthew Garrett 6503e5df08 thermal: use integers rather than strings for thermal values
The thermal API currently uses strings to pass values to userspace. This
makes it difficult to use from within the kernel. Change the interface
to use integers and fix up the consumers.

Rene Herman 16d7523973 thermal: Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n
A bug in libsensors <= 2.10.6 is exposed
when this new hwmon I/F is enabled.
Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n
until some time after libsensors 2.10.7 ships
so those users can run the latest kernel.

libsensors 3.x is already fixed -- those users
can use CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=y now.

Zhang, Rui 9ec732ff80 thermal: add new get_crit_temp callback
Add a new callback so that the generic thermal can get
the critical trip point info of a thermal zone,
which is needed for building the tempX_crit hwmon sysfs attribute.

Make ACPI thermal, video, processor and fan SELECT the generic
thermal driver, as these drivers rely on it to build the sysfs I/F.

Krzysztof Helt 5f1a3f2ac4 acpi thermal trip points increased to 12
The THERMAL_MAX_TRIPS value is set to 10.  It is too few for the Compaq AP550
machine which has 12 trip points.
