This patch is a v1 based on the RFC submitted here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1758921/

This patch set is based on Rui's -thermal tree, and is
tested on a Core-i5 and an Atom netbook.

This series contains 8 patches:
Patch 1/8: Creates new sensor level APIs
Patch 2/8: Creates new zone level APIs. The existing tzd structure is
           kept as such for clarity and compatibility purposes.
Patch 3/8: Creates functions to add/remove a cdev to/from a zone. The
           existing tcd structure need not be modified.
Patch 4/8: Adds a thermal_trip sysfs node, which exposes various trip
           points for all sensors present in a zone.
Patch 5/8: Adds a thermal_map sysfs node. It is a compact representation
           of the binding relationship between a sensor and a cdev,
           within a zone.
Patch 6/8: Creates Documentation for the new APIs. A new file is
           created for clarity. Final goal is to merge with the existing
           file or refactor the files, as whatever seems appropriate.
Patch 7/8: Make PER ZONE values configurable through Kconfig
Patch 8/8: A dummy driver that can be used for testing. This is not for

merge.

I read these patches, they create new APIs and sysfs, but it seems they
didn't use the thermal_zone to handle the thermal_throttle issue,
something like update thermal_zone, update temperature, handle
governors
when cross the trip temp. So will you send out next serial patches for
these implementation?

Yes, once these get into Rui's tree, we will start migrating the existing drivers/
and governors, to get things working.

Thanks,
Durga
