Updated.

I've re-factored to register the sensors at the end of the probe.

You're right. I missed the NULL return when THERMAL_OF is configured
off. This doesn't match the documentation at the top of the function in
drivers/thermal/of-thermal.c

* Return: On success returns a valid struct thermal_zone_device,
* otherwise, it returns a corresponding ERR_PTR(). Caller must
* check the return value with help of IS_ERR() helper.

Usage of thermal_zone_of_sensor_register in other drivers matches the above
doc. I'll include a patch fixing the NULL return with the next version.

Thanks for catching this! I'll fix this in the next version.

I had tested unloading the driver and didn't notice any adverse
ill-effects. Although thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister expects a
pointer to a device, other then checking for non-NULLness, it doesn't do
anything with it.

Perhaps, this argument should be dropped from the function. If the
thermal maintainers agree I can cook up a patch. Eduardo?

Thanks,
Punit
