What if the cdev is associated with two thermal zones asking for the
same state of it?

The "one value per attribute" sysfs rule violation.

Like in the previous patch, it would be good to explain the use case.

The meaning of the above description is not clear to me.

Why is the _safe variant needed here?

I would prefer

if (ret < 0)
        return ret;

return len;
