Rafael J. Wysocki 6d5537d40c thermal: core: Use trip lists for trip crossing detection
Modify the thermal core to use three lists of trip points:

 trips_high, containing trips with thresholds strictly above the current
 thermal zone temperature,

 trips_reached, containing trips with thresholds at or below the current
 zone temperature,

 trips_invalid, containing trips with temperature equal to
 THERMAL_ZONE_INVALID,

where the first two lists are always sorted by the current trip
threshold.

For each trip in trips_high, there is no mitigation under way and
the trip threshold is equal to its temperature.  In turn, for each
trip in trips_reached, there is mitigation under way and the trip
threshold is equal to its low temperature.  The trips in trips_invalid,
of course, need not be taken into consideration.

The idea is to make __thermal_zone_device_update() walk trips_high and
trips_reached instead of walking the entire table of trip points in a
thermal zone.  Usually, it will only need to walk a few entries in one
of the lists and check one entry in the other list, depending on the
direction of the zone temperature changes, because crossing many trips
by the zone temperature in one go between two consecutive temperature
checks should be unlikely (if it occurs often, the thermal zone
temperature should probably be checked more often either or there
are too many trips).

This also helps to eliminate one temporary trip list used for trip
crossing notification (only one temporary list is needed for this
purpose instead of two) and the remaining temporary list may be sorted
by the current trip threshold value, like the trips_reached list, so
the additional notify_temp field in struct thermal_trip_desc is not
necessary any more.

Moreover, since the trips_reached and trips_high lists are sorted,
the "low" and "high" values needed by thermal_zone_set_trips() can be
determined in a straightforward way by looking at one end of each list.

Of course, additional work is needed in some places in order to
maintain the ordering of the lists, but it is limited to situations
that should be rare, like updating a trip point temperature or
hysteresis, thermal zone initialization, or system resume.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
