thermal: core: move tz->device.groups cleanup to thermal_release
The device_unregister call in thermal_zone_device_unregister causes the thermal_zone_device structure to be freed before the call to free the dynamically allocated attribute groups. This leads to a kernel panic. Furthermore, the 4 calls to free the trip point attribute structures occur before the call to unregister the device, leading to a kernel panic when sysfs attempts to access the attributes to remove them. Here is an example of a kernel panic when the cpu thermal zones are removed upon cpu offline: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: strlen+0x0/0x20 <snip> Call Trace: ? kernfs_name_hash+0x17/0x80 kernfs_find_ns+0x3f/0xd0 kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x36/0xa0 remove_files.isra.1+0x36/0x70 sysfs_remove_group+0x44/0x90 sysfs_remove_groups+0x2e/0x50 device_remove_attrs+0x5e/0x90 device_del+0x1ea/0x350 device_unregister+0x1a/0x60 thermal_zone_device_unregister+0x1f2/0x210 pkg_thermal_cpu_offline+0x14f/0x1a0 [x86_pkg_temp_thermal] ? kzalloc.constprop.2+0x10/0x10 [x86_pkg_temp_thermal] cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x8d/0x3f0 cpuhp_down_callbacks+0x42/0x80 cpuhp_thread_fun+0x8b/0xf0 smpboot_thread_fn+0x110/0x160 kthread+0x101/0x140 ? sort_range+0x30/0x30 ? kthread_park+0x90/0x90 ret_from_fork+0x25/0x30 This patch moves the kfree calls to clean up the dynamic attributes to the thermal_class's thermal_zone_device release function.
