From a76caf55e5b356ba20a5a43ac4d9f7a04b20941d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ørjan Eide Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2015 18:09:30 +0100 Subject: thermal: Add devfreq cooling MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Add a generic thermal cooling device for devfreq, that is similar to cpu_cooling. The device must use devfreq. In order to use the power extension of the cooling device, it must have registered its OPPs using the OPP library.
