Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rzhang/linux
Pull thermal updates from Zhang Rui:
- Fix a regression where bogus trip points on some Lenovo laptops start
to screw up thermal control after commit 81ad4276b505 ("Thermal:
initialize thermal zone device correctly").
On these Lenovo laptops, a bogus passive trip point is reported,
which is 0 degree Celsius. Without commit 81ad4276b505, thermal zone
fails to set cooling devices to proper cooling state, which is a bug.
But with commit 81ad4276b505 applied, the processors are always
throttled on these Lenovo laptops because the current temperature is
always higher than the passive trip point.
Fix things to ignore such bogus trip points. (Zhang Rui)
- Introduce Mediatek thermal driver. (Sascha Hauer)
- Introduce devm_ versions of OF thermal sensor register API. (Laxman
Dewangan)
- Changes in Kconfigs to allow compile test on UM arch. (Krzysztof
Kozlowski)
- Introduce Skylake support in intel_pch_thermal driver. (Srinivas
Pandruvada)
- Several small fixes on Rockchip, TI-SoC, Tegra, RCar, and Exynos
thermal drivers.
