Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fixes for cpu cooling

Commit c36cf0717631 ("thermal: cpu_cooling: implement the power
cooling device API") introduced two bugs: a call to kcalloc() (that
might sleep) under RCU and not freeing the allocation when it's no
longer needed.  This series fixes both issues.

Javi Merino (2):
  thermal: cpu_cooling: don't call kcalloc() under rcu_read_lock
  thermal: cpu_cooling: free power table on error or when unregistering
