Without this check it was possible to execute cooling device binding code
even when wrong max cooling state was read.

Rui, are you taking these patches? Do you prefer me to collect them?

Cheers

Eduardo

I'd like to ask you NOT to apply those patches.

In short: It will cause regression on all non Exynos boards.

Explanation:

Up till now the cpu_cooling device was bind even when the
get_max_state() returned -EINVAL and everything worked after late
cpufreq policy initialization.

However, during this time window the thermal driver is not properly
configured.

Applying PATCH2/3 and PATCH3/3 would cause bind error without any
further occasion for re-bind. As a result THERAL will not be present
on the target system.

It works on the Exynos boards, since at the report_trigger() function, 
when first trip point is reached, it is checked if cpu_cooling device
is bind. If it is not (due to "fixes" at PATCH2/3 and PATCH3/3) it
is rebind then.

Due to above, I think that it would be best to leave things as they are
now and prepare proper fix as suggested by Eduardo.

Agreed. Can anyone please propose such a patch?

I can propose myself as a volunteer for this. Unfortunately, I won't be
able to provide any code earlier than in two weeks time.
