Thermal: Introduce fair_share thermal governor
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch introduces a simple 'weight' based
governor named fair_share governor. Whenever the
thermal framework gets notified of the trip point
violation, this governor (if configured), throttles
the cooling devices associated with a thermal zone.

This mapping between a thermal zone and a cooling device
and the effectiveness of cooling are provided in the
platform layer.

* P2. weight[i]/100:
* How 'effective' the 'i'th device is, in cooling the given zone.
* P3. cur_trip_level/max_no_of_trips:
* This describes the extent to which the devices should be throttled.
* We do not want to throttle too much when we trip a lower temperature,
* whereas the throttling is at full swing if we trip critical levels.
