I didn't like the left-shift which causes the signal to converge slowly.
I rather wanted right-shift to converge (react faster), so you have my
vote for this change. Also, I agree that with the two-signal approach
this shift trick can go away now. I just worry about the dropped boot
parameter.

So, are going to send that patach5 which removes the
'sched_thermal_decay_shift' and documentation bit?
