iwlwifi: Thermal Throttling Management - Part 1

Part 1 of Thermal Throttling Management -

Thermal Throttling feature is used to put NIC into low power state when
driver detect the Radio temperature reach pre-defined threshold

Two Thermal Throttling Management Methods; this patch introduce the
Legacy Thermal Management:
   IWL_TI_0: normal temperature, system power state
   IWL_TI_1: high temperature detect, low power state
   IWL_TI_2: higher temperature detected, lower power state
   IWL_TI_CT_KILL: critical temperature detected, lowest power state

Once get into CT_KILL state, uCode go into sleep, driver will stop all
the active queues, then move to IWL_TI_CT_KILL state; also set up 5
seconds timer to toggle CSR flag, uCode wake up upon CSR flag change,
then measure the temperature.
If temperature is above CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode go backto sleep;
if temperature is below CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode send Card State
Notification response with appropriate CT_KILL status flag, and uCode
remain awake, Driver receive Card State Notification Response and update
the card temperature to the CT_KILL exit threshold.
