This patch set adds two improvements to get a finer control over the
impact of thermal throttling on performance.
1) Patch 1: Adds support to read "Thermal fast Sampling Period (_TFP)"
ACPI object and use it over "Thermal Sampling Period (_TSP)" for
Passive cooling if both are present.
2) Patch 2: Adds support to reduce the CPUFREQ reduction percentage
and not always cause throttling in steps of "20%" for Tegra241 SoC.
Both patches can be applied independently.

v2[2] -> v3:
- Patch1: rebased on top of linux-next.
- Patch2: use __read_mostly for the cpufreq_thermal_* variables.
: add static to new function acpi_thermal_cpufreq_config_nvidia.
: add null function if CONFIG_HAVE_ARM_SMCCC_DISCOVERY undefined
: removed redundant parenthesis.
v1[1] -> v2:
- Patch1: add ACPI spec section info in commit description and rebased.
- Patch2: add info about hardware in the commit description.
: switched CPUFREQ THERMAL tuning macros to static variables.
: update the tunings for Tegra241 SoC only using soc_id check.
