From bca746037a308e2fbe742248d34635f07be2bfd9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean Delvare Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2015 11:21:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] thermal: step_wise: Revert optimization 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.
