Daniel T. already raised his concern (which I share too) about the
multi-platform builds, where we would want this to be runtime
selectable. I am fine with your approach of making that possible later
on, but I would really like that to be merged before the combo thing
comes in. So, I would suggest to merge stuff in this order:

- this series
- runtime selectable strategy
- combo stuff

I hope that would be fine ?

Should this line be moved to the CPU_THERMAL section above ?

drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig:        # if CPU_THERMAL is on and THERMAL=m, CPUFREQ_DT cannot be =y:
drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig:        depends on !CPU_THERMAL || THERMAL

drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig.arm:    depends on !CPU_THERMAL || THERMAL

All of these need to use CPU_FREQ_THERMAL now.

include/trace/events/thermal.h:#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_THERMAL
include/trace/events/thermal.h:#endif /* CONFIG_CPU_THERMAL */

And this too.
