[PATCH] thermal: allow creating hwmon for thermal zones on OF systems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Current implementation forcibly suppresses creation of hwmon instances
for thermal zones defined in device tree data. Let's add a new property,
"linux,hwmon" to allow marking certain thermal zones as needing generic
hwmon interface.
