Hmmm.. fixing partition_enable_opps() should be trivial but I wonder
why we are carrying devfreq_cooling.c code in upstream kernel at all?

It has been merged in the following commit:

commit a76caf55e5b356ba20a5a43ac4d9f7a04b20941d
Author: Ãrjan Eide <orjan.eide@xxxxxxx>
Date: Thu Sep 10 18:09:30 2015 +0100

thermal: Add devfreq cooling

Add a generic thermal cooling device for devfreq, that is similar to
cpu_cooling.

The device must use devfreq. In order to use the power extension of the
cooling device, it must have registered its OPPs using the OPP library.

but 4 years later there is still no single in-kernel user for this code?
