include/linux/units.h: add helpers for kelvin to/from Celsius conversion

Patch series "add header file for kelvin to/from Celsius conversion
helpers", v4.

There are several helper macros to convert kelvin to/from Celsius in
<linux/thermal.h> for thermal drivers.  These are useful for any other
drivers or subsystems, but it's odd to include <linux/thermal.h> just
for the helpers.

This adds a new <linux/units.h> that provides the equivalent inline
functions for any drivers or subsystems, and switches all the users of
conversion helpers in <linux/thermal.h> to use <linux/units.h> helpers.

This patch (of 12):

There are several helper macros to convert kelvin to/from Celsius in
<linux/thermal.h> for thermal drivers.  These are useful for any other
drivers or subsystems, but it's odd to include <linux/thermal.h> just
for the helpers.

This adds a new <linux/units.h> that provides the equivalent inline
functions for any drivers or subsystems.  It is intended to replace the
helpers in <linux/thermal.h>.
