thermal: netlink: Rework notify API for cooling devices

In analogy with some previous thermal netlink API changes, redefine
thermal_notify_cdev_state_update(), thermal_notify_cdev_add() and
thermal_notify_cdev_delete() to take a const cdev pointer as their
first argument and let them extract the requisite information from
there by themselves.

thermal: netlink: Pass thermal zone pointer to notify routines

There are several rountines in the thermal netlink API that take a
thermal zone ID or a thermal zone type as their arguments, but from
their callers perspective it would be more convenient to pass a thermal
zone pointer to them and let them extract the necessary data from the
given thermal zone object by themselves.

Modify the code accordingly.

thermal: netlink: Drop thermal_notify_tz_trip_add/delete()

Because thermal_notify_tz_trip_add/delete() are never used, drop them
entirely along with the related code.

The addition or removal of trip points is not supported by the thermal
core and is unlikely to be supported in the future, so it is also
unlikely that these functions will ever be needed.

thermal/core: Add a generic thermal_zone_get_trip() function

The thermal_zone_device_ops structure defines a set of ops family,
get_trip_temp(), get_trip_hyst(), get_trip_type(). Each of them is
returning a property of a trip point.

The result is the code is calling the ops everywhere to get a trip
point which is supposed to be defined in the backend driver. It is a
non-sense as a thermal trip can be generic and used by the backend
driver to declare its trip points.

Part of the thermal framework has been changed and all the OF thermal
drivers are using the same definition for the trip point and use a
thermal zone registration variant to pass those trip points which are
part of the thermal zone device structure.

Consequently, we can use a generic function to get the trip points
when they are stored in the thermal zone device structure.

This approach can be generalized to all the drivers and we can get rid
of the ops->get_trip_*. That will result to a much more simpler code
and make possible to rework how the thermal trip are handled in the
thermal core framework as discussed previously.

This change adds a function thermal_zone_get_trip() where we get the
thermal trip point structure which contains all the properties (type,
temp, hyst) instead of doing multiple calls to ops->get_trip_*.

That opens the door for trip point extension with more attributes. For
instance, replacing the trip points disabled bitmask with a 'disabled'
field in the structure.

Here we replace all the calls to ops->get_trip_* in the thermal core
code with a call to the thermal_zone_get_trip() function.

The thermal zone ops defines a callback to retrieve the critical
temperature. As the trip handling is being reworked, all the trip
points will be the same whatever the driver and consequently finding
the critical trip temperature will be just a loop to search for a
critical trip point type.

Provide such a generic function, so we encapsulate the ops
get_crit_temp() which can be removed when all the backend drivers are
using the generic trip points handling.

While at it, add the thermal_zone_get_num_trips() to encapsulate the
code more and reduce the grip with the thermal framework internals.

genetlink: start to validate reserved header bytes

We had historically not checked that genlmsghdr.reserved
is 0 on input which prevents us from using those precious
bytes in the future.

One use case would be to extend the cmd field, which is
currently just 8 bits wide and 256 is not a lot of commands
for some core families.

To make sure that new families do the right thing by default
put the onus of opting out of validation on existing families.

thermal: netlink: Add a new event to notify CPU capabilities change

Add a new netlink event to notify change in CPU capabilities in terms of
performance and efficiency.

Firmware may change CPU capabilities as a result of thermal events in the
system or to account for changes in the TDP (thermal design power) level.

This notification type will allow user space to avoid running workloads
on certain CPUs or proactively adjust power limits to avoid future events.

The netlink message consists of a nested attribute
(THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY) with three attributes:

* THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY_ID (type u32):
-- logical CPU number
* THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY_PERFORMANCE (type u32):
-- Scaled performance from 0-1023
* THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY_EFFICIENCY (type u32):
-- Scaled efficiency from 0-1023

thermal/drivers/netlink: Add the temperature when crossing a trip point

The slope of the temperature increase or decrease can be high and when
the temperature crosses the trip point, there could be a significant
difference between the trip temperature and the measured temperatures.

That forces the userspace to read the temperature back right after
receiving a trip violation notification.

In order to be efficient, give the temperature which resulted in the
trip violation.

thermal: netlink: Improve the initcall ordering

The initcalls like to play joke. In our case, the thermal-netlink
initcall is called after the thermal-core initcall but this one sends
a notification before the former is initialized. No issue was spotted,
but it could lead to a memory corruption, so instead of relying on the
core_initcall for the thermal-netlink, let's initialize directly from
the thermal-core init routine, so we have full control of the init
ordering.

thermal: core: genetlink support for events/cmd/sampling

Initially the thermal framework had a very simple notification
mechanism to send generic netlink messages to the userspace.

The notification function was never called from anywhere and the
corresponding dead code was removed. It was probably a first attempt
to introduce the netlink notification.

At LPC2018, the presentation "Linux thermal: User kernel interface",
proposed to create the notifications to the userspace via a kfifo.

The advantage of the kfifo is the performance. It is usually used from
a 1:1 communication channel where a driver captures data and sends it
as fast as possible to a userspace process.

The drawback is that only one process uses the notification channel
exclusively, thus no other process is allowed to use the channel to
get temperature or notifications.

This patch defines a generic netlink API to discover the current
thermal setup and adds event notifications as well as temperature
sampling. As any genetlink protocol, it can evolve and the versioning
allows to keep the backward compatibility.

In order to prevent the user from getting flooded with data on a
single channel, there are two multicast channels, one for the
temperature sampling when the thermal zone is updated and another one
for the events, so the user can get the events only without the
thermal zone temperature sampling.

Also, a list of commands to discover the thermal setup is added and
can be extended when needed.
