Now wait a minute, if you can't register the cooling device,
you still want to provide accurate link speeds to the user
in sysfs, right?  At least that's what you promise in Kconfig.

Another trailing period I'd remove.

I take it this patch (only) allows manual bandwidth throttling
through sysfs, right?  And emergency throttling is introduced
separately on top of this?
