Subject: [PATCH 0/2] thermal: avoid using IS_ERR_OR_NULL()

Hello Rui,

Here are two important patches I cooked while reading
linux-arm archives. IS_ERR_OR_NULL() can cause serious
problems and some ppl is even considering removing it [1].

For this reason, I am proposing the following cleanup under
drivers/thermal/

Please consider them.

BR,

  thermal: thermal_core: remove usage of IS_ERR_OR_NULL
  thermal: db8500_cpufreq_cooling: remove usage of IS_ERR_OR_NULL()
