    drm/etnaviv: add etnaviv cooling device · bcdfb5e5
    Russell King 提交于
    Each Vivante GPU contains a clock divider which can divide the GPU clock
    by 2^n, which can lower the power dissipation from the GPU.  It has been
    suggested that the GC600 on Dove is responsible for 20-30% of the power
    dissipation from the SoC, so lowering the GPU clock rate provides a way
    to throttle the power dissiptation, and reduce the temperature when the
    SoC gets hot.
    
    This patch hooks the Etnaviv driver into the kernel's thermal management
    to allow the GPUs to be throttled when necessary, allowing a reduction in
    GPU clock rate from /1 to /64 in power of 2 steps.
