Please correct me if i am wrong, but i think the issue lies in adt7470_update_thread()
leaving the kthread in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state when the second check for kthread_should_stop()
returns true and causes the kthread to exit. Since kthread_exit() might sleep in exit_signals(),
we get this warning.
Maybe moving set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) below the second check for kthread_should_stop()
would fix the issue?
