💅 NAME 💅

devfreq_cooling_unregister — the "okay we're done here, pack it up" of devfreq cooling devices. Unregisters them. Periodt.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void devfreq_cooling_unregister (struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev );

No return value bestie, it's void — it just does the thing and dips. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• cdev — pointer to the devfreq cooling device you wanna unregister. That's it. That's the whole vibe check. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically this function unregisters the devfreq cooling device 💅 — and bestie, listen, it also tears down the related Energy Model if it was present. Not always. Only if it was there. iykyk. 🌈

Lowkey important: it's the "if it was present" part that carries the whole meaning, so don't skip it when you're reading the source. Not me being picky, just being fr fr. ✨
