RE: [PATCH v1 0/3] iwlwifi: mvm: Thermal management fixes

[Korenblit, Miriam Rachel]

> Hi Everyone,

> There are a few thermal management shortcomings in the iwlwifi driver that are

> 
> First off, the fw_trips_index[] array field in struct iwl_mvm_thermal_device is
> only populated and never read, and the code populating it has problems, so
> patch [1/3] removes it.
> 
> Second, iwl_mvm_thermal_zone_register() populates the trip table after passing
> it to thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() which is too late, because it can
> get used before it is populated.  It also may as well use
> THERMAL_TEMP_INVALID as the "invalid temperature" value.  Both these issues
> are addressed by patch [2/3].
> 
> Finally, iwl_mvm_send_temp_report_ths_cmd() accesses the trip tables used
> during thermal zone registration directly in order to obtain the current trip point
> temperature values, which is not guaranteed to work in the future, because the
> core will store the trips information in its own copy of the trip table - see this
