Subject: [PATCH] drivers/thermal: remove unnecessary structure members allocated_tzp

Struct power_allocator_params element allocated_tzp is only used
in unbind to kfree the kzalloc space.
Maybe we don’t have to need this member to mark, also, kfree will
handle NULL point, there is no risk.
This change is to make the code run a bit fast.
