thermal: Use thermal zone device id in netlink messages
This patch changes the function thermal_generate_netlink_event
to receive a thermal zone device instead of a originator id.
This way, the messages will always be bound to a thermal zone.

Netlink socket initialization is done during the _init_ of the framework. Drivers which intend to use the notification mechanism just need to call thermal_generate_netlink_event() with two arguments viz -(originator, event). Typically the originator will be an integer assigned -to a thermal_zone_device when it registers itself with the framework. The +(originator, event). The originator is a pointer to struct thermal_zone_device +from where the event has been originated. An integer which represents the +thermal zone device will be used in the message to identify the zone. The event will be one of:{THERMAL_AUX0, THERMAL_AUX1, THERMAL_CRITICAL, THERMAL_DEV_FAULT}. Notification can be sent when the current temperature crosses any of the configured thresholds. |
