thermal: Rename generate_netlink_event

It doesn't seem right for the thermal subsystem to export a symbol
named generate_netlink_event. This function is thermal-specific and
its name should reflect that fact. Rename it to
thermal_generate_netlink_event.

Drivers which intend to use the notification mechanism 287 - just need to call generate_netlink_event() with two arguments viz 287 + just need to call thermal_generate_netlink_event() with two arguments viz 288 288 (originator, event). Typically the originator will be an integer assigned 289 289 to a thermal_zone_device when it registers itself with the framework. The 290 290 event will be one of:{THERMAL_AUX0, THERMAL_AUX1, THERMAL_CRITICAL,
