Rename the thermal documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:
| Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
| formal, and "while" is the common word.
|
| [...]
|
| Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
| use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
| uses?
dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.
Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".

The power allocator governor currently requires that the thermal zone
has at least two passive trip points. If there aren't, the governor
refuses to bind to the thermal zone.
This commit relaxes that requirement. Now the governor will bind to all
thermal zones regardless of how many trip points they have.

The power allocator governor is a thermal governor that controls system
and device power allocation to control temperature. Conceptually, the
implementation divides the sustainable power of a thermal zone among
all the heat sources in that zone.
This governor relies on "power actors", entities that represent heat
sources. They can report current and maximum power consumption and
can set a given maximum power consumption, usually via a cooling
device.
The governor uses a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller
driven by the temperature of the thermal zone. The output of the
controller is a power budget that is then allocated to each power
actor that can have bearing on the temperature we are trying to
control. It decides how much power to give each cooling device based
on the performance they are requesting. The PID controller ensures
that the total power budget does not exceed the control temperature.
