[PATCH 1/2] thermal: sysfs: Add a new sysfs node emul_temp

From: Amit Daniel Kachhap
Date: Sun Jan 06 2013 - 19:08:21 EST


This patch adds support to set the emulated temperature method in
thermal zone (sensor). After setting this feature thermal zone must
report this temperature and not the actual temperature. The actual
implementation of this emulated temperature is based on sensor
capability or platform specific. This is useful in debugging different
temperature threshold and its associated cooling action. Writing 0 on
this node should disable emulation.
