0e63a5c6ba It has been a relatively quiet cycle in docsland.
- As promised, the minimum Sphinx version to build the docs is now 1.7,
    and we have dropped support for Python 2 entirely.  That allowed the
    removal of a bunch of compatibility code.
 
  - A set of treewide warning fixups from Mauro that I applied after it
    became clear nobody else was going to deal with them.
 
  - The automarkup mechanism can now create cross-references from relative
    paths to RST files.
 
  - More translations, typo fixes, and warning fixes.
 
 No conflicts with any other tree as far as I know.

a7d6ba14ef thermal/core: Remove the 'forced_passive' option
The code was reorganized in 2012 with the commit 0c01ebbfd3.

The main change is a loop on the trip points array and a unconditional
call to the throttle() ops of the governors for each of them even if
the trip temperature is not reached yet.

With this change, the 'forced_passive' is no longer checked in the
thermal_zone_device_update() function but in the step wise governor's
throttle() callback.

As the force_passive does no belong to the trip point array, the
thermal_zone_device_update() can not compare with the specified
passive temperature, thus does not detect the passive limit has been
crossed. Consequently, throttle() is never called and the
'forced_passive' branch is unreached.

In addition, the default processor cooling device is not automatically
bound to the thermal zone if there is not passive trip point, thus the
'forced_passive' can not operate.

If there is an active trip point, then the throttle function will be
called to mitigate at this temperature and the 'forced_passive' will
override the mitigation of the active trip point in this case but with
the default cooling device bound to the thermal zone, so usually a
fan, and that is not a passive cooling effect.

Given the regression exists since more than 8 years, nobody complained
and at the best of my knowledge there is no bug open in
https://bugzilla.kernel.org, it is reasonable to say it is unused.

Remove the 'forced_passive' related code.

5a64f77569 PM: EM: Clarify abstract scale usage for power values in Energy Model
The Energy Model (EM) can store power values in milli-Watts or in abstract
scale. This might cause issues in the subsystems which use the EM for
estimating the device power, such as:

 - mixing of different scales in a subsystem which uses multiple
   (cooling) devices (e.g. thermal Intelligent Power Allocation (IPA))

 - assuming that energy [milli-Joules] can be derived from the EM power
   values which might not be possible since the power scale doesn't have
   to be in milli-Watts

To avoid misconfiguration add the requisite documentation to the EM and
related subsystems: EAS and IPA.

Fix up inconsistent usage of upper and lowercase letters in "Samsung"
and "Exynos" names.

"SAMSUNG" and "EXYNOS" are not abbreviations but regular trademarked
names.  Therefore they should be written with lowercase letters starting
with capital letter.

The lowercase "Exynos" name is promoted by its manufacturer Samsung
Electronics Co., Ltd., in advertisement materials and on website.

Although advertisement materials usually use uppercase "SAMSUNG", the
lowercase version is used in all legal aspects (e.g. on Wikipedia and in
