    SubjectRe: [RFC PATCH 2/2] thermal: Add generic cpu cooling implementation
    From
    Hey Amit, I was able to use your code on an i.MX6Q thermal
    implementation and it seemed to work pretty well. Thanks for adding
    this. A couple of comments below.

    Need to add the "const struct cpumask *mask_val" parameter
    to this function like it's used above and prototyped in the heard
    or else it causes a build error when building
    without CONFIG_CPU_FREQ defined.

    I don't like how ACTIVE does not have available notification callbacks
    like HOT and CRITICAL do. Perhaps I fail to grasp why they aren't there
    but besides just applying a cooling device, one might want to do something
    else as well upon hitting these trip points. So that said, it might be nice
    to add a notification to STATE_ACTIVE as well.
