Can you give a pointer to this discussion if there is any. I think a generic thermal netlink interface can get implemented separately, best without looking at any specific driver implementation. Best would be to revert the current patch and send a more generic implementation with at least these in CC (or other lists maintaining drivers who might make use of it): platform-driver-x86@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Then people can bring in their needs and eventually come up with code making use of it.
