Hi Thara,

sorry for the delay.

The patch itself looks fine but I'm not very convinced about using a
specific driver as a warming device.

It is all about changing the performance state of a device and the power
domain is a way to access the associated callback.

It could be used as a cooling device as well.

The cpufreq cooling device could be used as a warming device and the way
we access the performance state is the freq qos.

We end up with different ways to do the same thing : change the
performance state.

On the other side, the energy model is being moved to the struct device,
so we will have gpu and cpu using it to retrieve a performance state
given a power value.

My opinion is instead of multiplying the ways to do the same think, we
should find a way to unify all the passive cooling devices into a single
generic performance state based mitigation device.

It does not imply to make all the passive cooling device changes but
provide a generic one first.

The ideal would be to register a struct device as a performance state
capable device and use the energy model stored in it.

In the meantime, the energy model should embed a couple of callbacks
get_power / set_power to set the performance state.

That implies a bit of more work, but IMHO it is worth to do.

Does it make sense ?
