Added processor thermal device mail box interface for workload hints
setting. These hints will give indication to hardware to better manage
power and thermals. The supported hints are:
idle
semi_active
burusty
sustained
battery_life
For example when the system is on battery, the hardware can be less
aggressive in power ramp up.
This will create an attribute group at
/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:04.0/workload_request
This folder contains two attributes:
workload_available_types : (RO): This shows available workload types
workload_type: (RW) : Allows to set and get current workload type
setting
