4e5e4705bf thermal: introduce device tree parser
This patch introduces a device tree bindings for
describing the hardware thermal behavior and limits.
Also a parser to read and interpret the data and feed
it in the thermal framework is presented.

This patch introduces a thermal data parser for device
tree. The parsed data is used to build thermal zones
and thermal binding parameters. The output data
can then be used to deploy thermal policies.

This patch adds also documentation regarding this
API and how to define tree nodes to use
this infrastructure.

Note that, in order to be able to have control
on the sensor registration on the DT thermal zone,
it was required to allow changing the thermal zone
.get_temp callback. For this reason, this patch
also removes the 'const' modifier from the .ops
field of thermal zone devices.

80a26a5c22 Thermal: build thermal governors into thermal_sys module
The thermal governors are part of the thermal framework,
rather than a seperate feature/module.
Because the generic thermal layer can not work without
thermal governors, and it must load the thermal governors
during its initialization.

Build them into one module in this patch.

This also fix a problem that the generic thermal layer does not
work when CONFIG_THERMAL=m and CONFIG_THERMAL_GOV_XXX=y.

71350db43b Thermal: Move thermal_instance to thermal_core.h
This patch creates a thermal_core.h file which can contain
all defines used by the core thermal framework files. For
now, move the thermal_instance structure to thermal_core.h
This structure is used by files under drivers/thermal/.
