This patch introduces a simple 'weight' based
governor named fair_share governor. Whenever the
thermal framework gets notified of the trip point
violation, this governor (if configured), throttles
the cooling devices associated with a thermal zone.

This mapping between a thermal zone and a cooling device
and the effectiveness of cooling are provided in the
platform layer.

I believe Rui has already provided an arbitrator, can we reuse it here as well?

I thought about this. I was of the opinion a governor can choose to do arbitration
in its own specific way. For example, The fair_share does not check 'cdev->updated'
value whenever it tries to update the state of a cooling device.

Thanks,
Durga

I see. the arbitration starts to get more and more complex. not to talk about constraints
coming from performance domain and not thermal.

I'd still try to find a central point for doing the arbitration, this way we grow the code
in a scalable way...
