Thermal governors can request for a cpu's maximum supported frequency
to be capped in case of an overheat event. This in turn means that the
maximum capacity available for tasks to run on the particular cpu is
reduced. Delta between the original maximum capacity and capped
maximum capacity is known as thermal pressure. Enable cpufreq cooling
device to update the thermal pressure in event of a capped
maximum frequency.

v4->v5:
	- fixed issues in update_sched_max_capacity comment header.
	- Updated update_sched_max_capacity to calculate maximum available
	  capacity.

Have you seen

Also the naming 'update_thermal_pressure()' is not really suitable for
an external task scheduler interface. If I see this called in the
cooling device code, I wouldn't guess that this is a task scheduler
interface.

Yes and have you seen this
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAKfTPtCpZq61gQVpATtTdg5hDA+tP4bF6xPMsvHYUMoY+H-6FQ@mail.gmail.com/

this
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/5DBB0FD4.8000509@linaro.org/

and this from Ionela (which is the basis for v5)
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191101154612.GA4884@e108754-lin/

I stand by what I said earlier that I see no reason to take parsing of
the cpus into fair.c for this feature (this way this solution is more
generic and can be used from any other entity capping maximum cpu frequency)

Do you have a name suggestion? When you say you don't like a name do
suggest a name so that I have an idea of what is it you are expecting.

The current interface to bring in frequency and uarch (CPU) invariance
information into the task scheduler is arch_scale_[freq|cpu]_capacity.

So why not follow this approach for the thermal->sched interface?

+#ifndef arch_scale_thermal_capacity
+static __always_inline
+unsigned long arch_scale_thermal_capacity(int cpu)
+{
+       return 0;
+}
+#endif

Leave per_cpu(thermal_pressure, cpu) within cpu cooling and let cpu
cooling (or even platform) #define arch_scale_thermal_capacity.
