This patch adds documentation for thermal_bind_params
and thermal_zone_params structures. Also, adds details
on EXPORT_SYMBOL APIs.

This movement is needed because the hwmon entries and corresponding sysfs
interface is a duplicate of utilities already provided by
driver/thermal/thermal_sys.c. The goal is to place it in thermal folder
and add necessary functions to use the in-kernel thermal interfaces.

This patchset introduces a new generic cooling device based on cpufreq
that can be used on non-ACPI platforms. As a proof of concept, we have
drivers for the following platforms using this mechanism now:
* Samsung Exynos (Exynos4 and Exynos5) in the current patchset.
* Freescale i.MX (git://git.linaro.org/people/amitdanielk/linux.git imx6q_thermal)
There is a small change in cpufreq cooling registration APIs, so a minor
change is needed for Freescale platforms.
Brief Description:
1) The generic cooling devices code is placed inside driver/thermal/*
as placing inside acpi folder will need un-necessary enabling of acpi
code. This code is architecture independent.
2) This patchset adds generic cpu cooling low level implementation
through frequency clipping. In future, other cpu related cooling
devices may be added here. An ACPI version of this already exists
(drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c) .But this will be useful for
platforms like ARM using the generic thermal interface along with the
generic cpu cooling devices. The cooling device registration API's
return cooling device pointers which can be easily binded with the
thermal zone trip points. The important APIs exposed are,
a) struct thermal_cooling_device *cpufreq_cooling_register(
struct cpumask *clip_cpus)
b) void cpufreq_cooling_unregister(struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev)
3) Samsung exynos platform thermal implementation is done using the
generic cpu cooling APIs and the new trip type. The temperature sensor
driver present in the hwmon folder(registered as hwmon driver) is moved
to thermal folder and registered as a thermal driver.
A simple data/control flow diagrams is shown below,

Cpufreq cooling device <---------------
TODO:
*Will send the DT enablement patches later after the driver is merged.
This patch:
Add support for generic cpu thermal cooling low level implementations
using frequency scaling up/down based on the registration parameters.
Different cpu related cooling devices can be registered by the user and
the binding of these cooling devices to the corresponding trip points can
be easily done as the registration APIs return the cooling device pointer.
The user of these APIs are responsible for passing clipping frequency .
The drivers can also register to recieve notification about any cooling
action called.

The Linux Thermal Framework does not support hysteresis
attributes. Most thermal sensors, today, have a
hysteresis value associated with trip points.
This patch adds hysteresis attributes on a per-trip-point
basis, to the Thermal Framework. These attributes are
optionally writable.

Some of the thermal drivers using the Generic Thermal Framework
require (all/some) trip points to be writeable. This patch makes
the trip point temperatures writeable on a per-trip point basis,
and modifies the required function call in thermal.c. This patch
also updates the Documentation to reflect the new change.

It doesn't seem right for the thermal subsystem to export a symbol
named generate_netlink_event. This function is thermal-specific and
its name should reflect that fact. Rename it to
thermal_generate_netlink_event.

Values below 1000 milli-celsius don't make sense and can cause the
system to go into a thermal heart attack: the actual temperature
will always be lower and thus the system will be throttled down to
its lowest setting.
An additional problem is that values below 1000 will show as 0 in
/proc/acpi/thermal/TZx/trip_points:passive.
cat passive
