Hi Kirill,

unfortunately now we have another race condition :(. See below ...

Unfortunately, that results in a race condition, since the tdata list
entry is gone before the attribute file is deleted.

I think you can still use list_for_each_entry_safe, only outside the
mutex, and remove the list entry at the end of coretemp_remove_core()
after deleting the attribute file. Just keep the code as it was, and
remove the list entry (mutex-protected) where core_data[] was set to
NULL.

Actually, we don't need is_pkg_data anymore at all. Just test for
"tdata->id == 1" instead. That will simplify the code a bit.

Same race condition as above here.
