+ * hot_temp_calc() is responsible for distilling the six heat
+ * criteria, which are described in detail in hot_tracking.h) down into a single
+ * temperature value for the data, which is an integer between 0
+ * and HEAT_MAX_VALUE.
+ *
+ * To accomplish this, the raw values from the hot_freq_data structure
+ * are shifted various ways in order to make the temperature calculation more
+ * or less sensitive to each value.
+ *
+ * Once this calibration has happened, we do some additional normalization and
+ * make sure that everything fits nicely in a u32. From there, we take a very
+ * rudimentary kind of "average" of each of the values, where the *_COEFF_POWER
+ * values act as weights for the average.
+ *
+ * Finally, we use the HEAT_HASH_BITS value, which determines the size of the
+ * heat list array, to normalize the temperature to the proper granularity.

+ * The following comments explain what exactly comprises a unit of heat.
+ *
+ * Each of six values of heat are calculated and combined in order to form an
+ * overall temperature for the data:
+ *
+ * NRR - number of reads since mount
+ * NRW - number of writes since mount
+ * LTR - time elapsed since last read (ns)
+ * LTW - time elapsed since last write (ns)
+ * AVR - average delta between recent reads (ns)
+ * AVW - average delta between recent writes (ns)
+ *
+ * These values are divided (right-shifted) according to the *_DIVIDER_POWER
+ * values defined below to bring the numbers into a reasonable range. You can
+ * modify these values to fit your needs. However, each heat unit is a u32 and
+ * thus maxes out at 2^32 - 1. Therefore, you must choose your dividers quite
+ * carefully or else they could max out or be stuck at zero quite easily.
+ *
+ * (E.g., if you chose AVR_DIVIDER_POWER = 0, nothing less than 4s of atime
+ * delta would bring the temperature above zero, ever.)
+ *
+ * Finally, each value is added to the overall temperature between 0 and 8
+ * times, depending on its *_COEFF_POWER value. Note that the coefficients are
+ * also actually implemented with shifts, so take care to treat these values
+ * as powers of 2. (I.e., 0 means we'll add it to the temp once; 1 = 2x, etc.)
