Because the ACPI thermal driver generally operates temperature values in deci-Kelvin, it needs the library functions returning temperature for various trip point types to use deci-Kelvin too. To address that, arrange the ACPI thermal library code in three levels of functions where the high-level ones will return temperature in milli-Celsius, as needed by the thermal core and the majority of thermal drivers, the mid-level ones will return temperature in deci-Kelvin and will be called internally by the corresponding high- level functions, and all of the mid-level functions will call the same low-level one, acpi_trip_temp(), to actually evaluate ACPI objects to retrieve themperature values from the platform firmware. Going forward, this will allow the ACPI thermal driver to use the mid-level functions to provide temperature values needed by it, so as to reduce code duplication related to evaluating trip temperature ACPI control methods. No intentional functional impact. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
