thermal: Add a new trip type to use cooling device instance number
This patch adds a new trip type THERMAL_TRIP_STATE_ACTIVE. This trip behaves same as THERMAL_TRIP_ACTIVE but also passes the cooling device instance number. This helps the cooling device registered as different instances to perform appropriate cooling action decision in the set_cur_state call back function. Also since the trip temperature's are in ascending order so some logic is put in place to skip the un-necessary checks. Signed-off-by: Amit Daniel Kachhap <amit.kachhap@linaro.org>
