Hi Lukasz,
> 1. Introduction
>
> Following patches aim to clean up the current implementation of the
> thermal framework on Exynos devices.
>
> The main goal was to use a generic code for reading thermal
> configuration (of-thermal.c). Due to that redundant
> exynos_thermal_common.[h|c] files were removed.
>
> Around 400 lines of code (LOC) were removed directly by this patch,
> which is around 20% of the Exynos thermal code base.
>
> This work should NOT bring any functional changes to Exynos thermal
> subsystem.
>
> 2. Patch-set structure
>
> This series starts with extending current of-thermal.c implementation
> with exporting information about trip points and support for setting
> emulated temperature. Those changes were necessary to reuse this code
> in Exynos.
>
> Then the cpu_cooling functionality has been preserved to allow cooling
> devices by reducing operating frequency. Definition of trip points and
> cpufreq's cooling properties were moved to device tree.
>
> Then the rework of the way in which configuration data is provided to
> the Exynos thermal subsystem was performed. Now device tree is used
> for configuration.
>
> Patch series end with removing exynos5250/exynos3250 TMU compatibles.
> Both SoCs have thermal management unit (TMU) compatible with the one
> first introduced at Exynos4412.
>
> 3. Dead code removal
>
> Thermal support for some SoCs, previously available in the
> exynos_tmu_data.c file, was removed since, as of 3.17-rc6, they
> didn't have TMU bindings.
>
> Moreover, support for cpu_cooling devices was preserved only on those
> SoCs which had available and working cpufreq driver.
>
> 4. Testing
>
> Test devices:
> - Exynos4210 - Trats (TMU zone + cpu_cooling)
> - Exynos4412 - Trats2/Odroid U3 (TMU zone + cpu_cooling)
> - Exynos5250 - Arndale (TMU zone + cpu_cooling)
> - Exynos5420 - Arndale-octa (only TMU zones)
>
> Unfortunately, I don't posses Exynos5440 for testing. Its
> functionality has been preserved in the code, but not tested on the
> hardware. I would be grateful for help in testing.

Any comments on this patch set (despite the ones from Chanwoo)?
I'm especially wondering if changes introduced to of-thermal.c file are
appropriate for mainline.
