we should introduce an API for platform thermal drivers to switch their
policy.
say they may want to switch to "userspace" to disable the kernel thermal
control.
and policy_store should invoke that function directly.

BTW, IMO, deactiving all the thermal_instances and updating the cooling
devices when a thermal zone switches to "userspace" governor is
reasonable.
