[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 30/71] thermal: step_wise: Revert optimization

Show all headers | View raw

3.16.7-ckt14 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de>

Commit 178c2490b99f898efc06d1ad75cadc84f13021a6 ("thermal: step_wise:
cdev only needs update on a new target state") broke driver acerhdf.
That driver abused the step_wise thermal governor until the bang_bang
governor was available, and the optimization broke this usage model.

Kernels v3.12 to v3.18 are affected. In v3.19 the acerhdf driver was
switched to the bang_bang governor and that solved the problem.

For kernels v3.12 to v3.17, the bang_bang governor isn't available
yet so the easiest fix is to revert the optimization.
