"This time we only have a few changes as there are no soc thermal
changes from Eduardo. The only big change is the introduction of
TMON, a tool to help visualize, tune, and test the thermal subsystem.
The rest is mostly cleanups and fixes all over.

- introduce TMON, a tool base on thermal sysfs I/F. It can be used
to visualize, tune and test the thermal subsystem.
- fix a zone/cooling device binding problem, when both thermal zone
bind parameters and .bind() callback are available"

Commit 4ae46be "Thermal: Introduce thermal_zone_trip_update()"
introduced a regression causing the fan to be always on even when
the system is idle.
My original idea in that commit is that:
- when the current temperature is above the trip point,
keep the fan on, even if the temperature is dropping.
- when the current temperature is below the trip point,
turn on the fan when the temperature is raising,
turn off the fan when the temperature is dropping.
But this is what the code actually does:
- when the current temperature is above the trip point,
the fan keeps on.
- when the current temperature is below the trip point,
the fan is always on because thermal_get_trend()
in driver/acpi/thermal.c returns THERMAL_TREND_RAISING.
Thus the fan keeps running even if the system is idle.
Fix this in drivers/acpi/thermal.c.

On some platforms, _TMP and _CRT/_HOT/_PSV/_ACx have dependency.
And there is no way for OS to detect this dependency.
commit 9bcb811896 shows us a problem
that _TMP must be evaluate after _CRT/_HOT/_PSV/_ACx, or else
firmware will shutdown the system.
But the machine in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43284
shows us that _PSV would return valid value only if _TMP has been
evaluated once.
With this patch, all of the control methods will be evaluated once,
in the _CRT/_HOT/_PSV/_CRT/_TMP order, before they are actually used.

to anticipate the temperature trends.
We introduced the same concept to the generic thermal layer
for passive cooling, but now it seems that these values
are hard to be used on other platforms.
So We introduce .get_trend() as a more general solution.
For the platform thermal drivers that have their own way to
anticipate the temperature trends, they should provide
their own .get_trend() callback.
Or else, we will calculate the temperature trends by simply
comparing the current temperature and the cached previous
temperature reading.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

We currently invalidate the whole thermal zone in this case.
But it may still be needed for cooling, also without critical

This patch invalidates the critical trip point if no _CRT

not invalidate the whole thermal zone in this case.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
