[patch 6/6] Intel Menlow : extract return values using PTR_ERR

[Thomas, Sujith]

From: Thomas Sujith <sujith.thomas@xxxxxxxxx>

Need to extract errors using PTR_ERR macro and
process accordingly.thermal_cooling_device_register
returning NULL means that CONFIG_THERMAL=n and in that
case no need to create symbolic links.
