Thermal pressure follows pelt signas which means the
decay period for thermal pressure is the default pelt
decay period. Depending on soc charecteristics and thermal
activity, it might be beneficial to decay thermal pressure
slower, but still in-tune with the pelt signals.
One way to achieve this is to provide a command line parameter
to set a decay shift parameter to an integer between 0 and 10.

v4->v5:
	- Changed _coeff to _shift as per review comments on the list.

Would be better to create

+static inline u64 rq_clock_thermal(struct rq *rq)
+{
+       lockdep_assert_held(&rq->lock);
+       assert_clock_updated(rq);
+
+       return rq_clock_task(rq) >> sched_thermal_decay_shift;
+}
+

and use it when calling update_thermal_load_avg(rq_clock_thermal(rq)...

IMHO, the asserts can be skipped here since they're already done in
rq_clock_task().

You're reading straight from the cmdline into a kernel variable w/o
any bounds checking. Perhaps use clamp or clamp_val to make sure it is
between 0 and 10?
