Subject: [RESEND][PATCH v2 3/3] dt-bindings: thermal: update sustainable-power with abstract scale
Date: Mon,  5 Oct 2020 17:30:16 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201005163016.13650-1-lukasz.luba@arm.com> (raw)

Update the documentation for the binding 'sustainable-power' and allow
to provide values in an abstract scale. It is required when the cooling
devices use an abstract scale for their power values.

Hi Rob,
 
This is a fixed patch for DT binding, which now passes the
make dt_binding_check (I have changed tabs into spaces).
The former patch error that I have received is here [1]. 

Regards,
Lukasz
