If a PSU is not present, there could be error log while restarting psud or thermalctld:
Jan 8 17:15:52.689616 sonic ERR pmon#psud: Thermal sysfs /run/hw-management/thermal/psu2_temp1_max does not exist
Jan 8 17:15:57.747723 sonic ERR pmon#thermalctld: Thermal sysfs /run/hw-management/thermal/psu2_temp1 does not exist

if a PSU is not present, we should not check the PSU temperature sysfs.
* fix hw_reset low polarity (reverse values)
* move seek to beginning of sysfs fd before reading to resolve power_good

- Why I did it
1. Thermal updater should wait more time for module to be initialized
2. sfp should get temperature threshold from EEPROM because SDK sysfs is not yet supported
3. Rename sfp function to fix typo
4. sfp.get_presence should return False if module is under initialization

new thread in a new file and changing logic in platform code in chassis.py which is calling this thread from get_change_event()
this thread in the new file handles the state machine per port.
first the static detection takes place once the thread is up (during switch bootup sequence), until final decision if it's FW control or SW control module.
After it ends, the dynamic detection takes place, listening to changes in the sysfs fds, per port,
so it will be able to detect plug in or out events of a cable.

In order to activate FW after it was upgraded need to perform reboot.
If reboot wasn't performed and user need to upgrade to another SONiC image then it will fail.
The reason for that is that during SONiC upgrade new FW should be installed but it will fail because previously installed FW wasn't activated.
In order to allow 2nd FW upgrade without reboot in-between need to reactivate FW image.
This change handles such flow.
Example of issue scenario:
User installed SONiC image on the switch
Then for some reason FW was upgraded by user or script but reboot was not performed to activate it.
After that upgrade to new SONiC image will fail because new image need to install FW but it fails due to previous one wasn't activated.
- How I did it
In "mlnx-fw-upgrade" script check if FW upgrade failed with the error that FW was already installed but reboot was not performed.
If so then perform FW image reactivation and try to upgrade FW again.
- How to verify it
Install SONiC image on the switch
Then upgrade FW but don't perform reboot.
After that upgrade to new SONiC image and check that upgrade was successfull.

watchdogutil uses platform API watchdog instance to control/query watchdog status. In Nvidia watchdog status, it caches "armed" status in a object member "WatchdogImplBase.armed". This is not working for CLI infrastructure because each CLI will create a new watchdog instance, the status cached in previous instance will totally lose. Consider following commands:
admin@sonic:~$ sudo watchdogutil arm -s 100 =====> watchdog instance1, armed=True
Watchdog armed for 100 seconds
admin@sonic:~$ sudo watchdogutil status ======> watchdog instance2, armed=False
Status: Unarmed

Sharing the storage of syncd with other proprietary application extensions allows them to communicate with syncd in differnt ways.
If one container wants to pass some information to syncd then shared storage can be used. However, today the shared storage isn't cleaned on restarts making it possible for syncd to read out-of-date information generated in the past.
NOTE: No plans to use it for standard SONIC dockers and we are working on removing the SDK dependency from PMON docker

#### Why I did it
Facilitate Automatic integration of sdk kernel patches into SONiC.
**Inputs to the Script:**
1) `MLNX_SDK_VERSION` Eg: `4.5.4206`
2) `MLNX_SDK_ISSU_VERSION` Eg: `101`
**Note: If nothing is provided the one already present in the sdk.mk file is used**
3) `MLNX_SDK_SOURCE_BASE_URL:`
**Note: If nothing is provided the upstream sdk drivers url is used**
4) `CREATE_BRANCH: (y|n)` Creates a branch instead of a commit (optional, default: n)
5) `BRANCH_SONIC`: Only relevant when CREATE_BRANCH is y. `Default: master`.
Note: These should be provided through `SONIC_OVERRIDE_BUILD_VARS ` parameter
**Output:**
1) Script creates a commit in sonic-linux-kernel with any updates to sdk-kernel patches in sonic in accordance with the version provided by `MLNX_SDK_VERSION`
**Note: Script Doesn't commit anything to linux-kernel when there aren't any changes required..**
