Yes, that's correct.

The thermal_zone_device_is_enabled() is only used in two places, acpi
and this imx driver, and given:

1. as soon as the mutex is released, there is no guarantee the thermal
zone won't be changed right after, the lock is pointless, thus the
information also.

2. from a design point of view, I don't see why a driver should know if
a thermal zone is disabled or not

It would make sense to end with this function and do not give the
different drivers an opportunity to access this information.

Why not add change_mode for the acpi in order to enable or disable the
events and for imx_thermal use irq_enabled flag instead of the thermal
zone mode? Moreover it is very unclear why this function is needed in
imx_get_temp(), and I suspect we should be able to get rid of it.
