mlxsw: core: Add the hottest thermal zone detection
When multiple sensors are mapped to the same cooling device, the cooling device should be set according the worst sensor from the sensors associated with this cooling device. Provide the hottest thermal zone detection and enforce cooling device to follow the temperature trends of the hottest zone only. Prevent competition for the cooling device control from others zones, by "stable trend" indication. A cooling device will not perform any actions associated with a zone with a "stable trend". When other thermal zone is detected as a hottest, a cooling device is to be switched to following temperature trends of new hottest zone. Thermal zone score is represented by 32 bits unsigned integer and calculated according to the next formula: For T < TZ<t><i>, where t from {normal trip = 0, high trip = 1, hot trip = 2, critical = 3}: TZ<i> score = (T + (TZ<t><i> - T) / 2) / (TZ<t><i> - T) * 256 ** j; Highest thermal zone score s is set as MAX(TZ<i>score); Following this formula, if TZ<i> is in trip point higher than TZ<k>, the higher score is to be always assigned to TZ<i>. For two thermal zones located at the same kind of trip point, the higher score will be assigned to the zone which is closer to the next trip point. Thus, the highest score will always be assigned objectively to the hottest thermal zone. All the thermal zones initially are to be configured with mode "enabled" with the "step_wise" governor.
