Okay, I understood. I missed the point that governor will handle a cooling
device within certain trip point described in thermal instance.
But still I don't think this is the best behaviour. Let say we were in trip
level 2nd and moving to trip level 1st then we should call governor twice for
applying trip 1 level. Why don't we just call once? And whenever we call
handle_thermal_trip() with all trips, monitor_thermal_work() will also be called
at the same time. I think we can make this work more clearly and intuitively.
let me think of it more,,,

Thanks,
Jonghwa.
