This patch adds a helper function to get temperature of a thermal zone, based on the zone type name. It will perform a zone name lookup and return the last sensor temperature reading. In case the zone is not found or if the required parameters are invalid, it will return the corresponding error code. With this, we could write platform code to fetch several temperature from several sensors and derive "summary" temperature for a virtual thermal zone.
