Thank you for the patch. Good catch! It's under the device driver
callback optional thing: get_real_power().

Please send the v2 with extended explanation about the section
of the code, which is triggered by the get_real_power() presence.
Also, please add the tags, so it can be collected by stable kernel.

Fixes: 615510fe13bd2434610 ("thermal: devfreq_cooling: remove old power 
model and use EM")
Cc: 5.11+ <stable@...r.kernel.org> # 5.11+

BTW, how did you trigger that issue? Do you have such a driver
which provides this get_real_power() callback?

Regards,
Lukasz
