Subject: [PATCH 3/9] thermal/core: Ensure that thermal device is registered in thermal_zone_get_temp

Calls to thermal_zone_get_temp() are not protected against thermal zone
device removal. As result, it is possible that the thermal zone operations
callbacks are no longer valid when thermal_zone_get_temp() is called.
This may result in crashes such as

if a thermal device is removed while accesses to its device attributes
are ongoing.

The problem is exposed by code in iwl_op_mode_mvm_start(), which registers
a thermal zone device only to unregister it shortly afterwards if an
unrelated failure is encountered while accessing the hardware.

Check if the thermal zone device is registered after acquiring the
thermal zone device mutex to ensure this does not happen.

The code was tested by triggering the failure in iwl_op_mode_mvm_start()
on purpose. Without this patch, the kernel crashes reliably. The crash
is no longer observed after applying this and the preceding patches.
