First thing I ask you is to update your work on top of my -linus branch,
as I already mentioned. Reasoning is that part of the changes you are
sending is already there.

As for this new callback, I am fine with it as long as it is also
available for drivers that do not use of-thermal. Once again, of-thermal
is not a competitor of thermal core. It will never be. It is not a new
thermal API. 

That said, it does not make sense to have functionality in of-thermal that
do not belong to thermal core. Exceptions are, of course, for helping
doing the same operations we already have in thermal core.

All the best,

Eduardo Valentin
