The Energy Model can now be artificial, which means the power values are mathematically generated to leverage EAS while not expected to be on an uniform scale with other devices providing power information. If this EM type is in use, the thermal governor IPA should not be allowed to operate, since the relation between cooling devices is not properly defined. Thus, it might be possible that big GPU has lower power values than a Little CPU. To mitigate a misbehaviour of the thermal control algorithm, simply do not register the cooling device as IPA's power actor.
