Recently sent as a RFC, the thermal ACPI for generic trip points is a
set of
functions to fill the generic trip points structure which will become
the
standard structure for the thermal framework and its users.

Different Intel drivers and the ACPI thermal driver are using the
ACPI tables to
get the thermal zone information. As those are getting the same
information,
providing this set of ACPI function with the generic trip points will
consolidate the code.

My understanding is that the ACPI thermal driver
(drivers/acpi/thermal.c) should be one of the top users of these APIs.

Yes, correct.

Is there any specific reason that it is not included in this patch
series? or is it just that you don't have ACPI thermal driver running
on your test platform?

The generic trip point handling in the acpi thermal driver is another story. Some code reorg and cleanup should be done before. I have a series for that but I need to test it more. That is the reason why it will be submitted after this series is reviewed, so the changes will be focused on the acpi thermal driver only.

I have a laptop with acpitz but only the critical trip temp.
