+Subject: [PATCH] drivers: thermal: step_wise: add support for
+ hysteresis
+
+Step wise governor increases the mitigation level when the temperature
+goes above a threshold and will decrease the mitigation when the
+temperature falls below the threshold. If it were a case, where the
+temperature hovers around a threshold, the mitigation will be applied
+and removed at every iteration. This reaction to the temperature is
+inefficient for performance.
+
+The use of hysteresis temperature could avoid this ping-pong of
+mitigation by relaxing the mitigation to happen only when the
+temperature goes below this lower hysteresis value.
