A call to thermal_zone_device_unregister() results in thermal device
removal. While the thermal device itself is reference counted and
protected against removal of its associated data structures, the
thermal device operations are owned by the calling code and unprotected.
This may result in crashes such as

if a thermal device is removed while accesses to its device attributes
are ongoing.
Use the thermal device mutex to protect device operations. Clear the
device operations pointer in thermal_zone_device_unregister() under
protection of this mutex, and only access it while the mutex is held.
Flatten and simplify device mutex operations to only acquire the mutex
once and hold it instead of acquiring and releasing it several times
during thermal operations. Only validate parameters once at module entry
points after acquiring the mutex. Execute governor operations under mutex
instead of expecting governors to acquire and release it.
Does the following series:

goes to the same direction than your proposal?
