2019-06-27docs: thermal: convert to ReSTMauro Carvalho Chehab
Rename the thermal documentation files to ReST, add an index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html output via the Sphinx build system. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

2017-04-20Doc/PM: Sync with intel_powerclamp code behaviorJacob Pan
Commit feb6cd6a0f9f ("thermal/intel_powerclamp: stop sched tick in forced idle") changed how idle injection accouting, so we need to update the documentation accordingly. This patch also expands more details on the behavior of cur_state.

2013-02-06PM: Introduce Intel PowerClamp DriverJacob Pan
Intel PowerClamp driver performs synchronized idle injection across all online CPUs. The goal is to maintain a given package level C-state ratio. Compared to other throttling methods already exist in the kernel, such as ACPI PAD (taking CPUs offline) and clock modulation, this is often more efficient in terms of performance per watt. Please refer to Documentation/thermal/intel_powerclamp.txt for more details.
