pm_notifier() macro will declare a static variable. I agree this won't
be any problem functionality-wise. But it doesn't seem elegant to say
"throw away the function but keep the static variable".
So, if you want to add __init qualifier to this function, I suggest that
you declare the static variable outside the function, and call
register_pm_notifier() in the function, just to ensure it doesn't obscure
things.

And please change the title, it talks about intel_thermal_interrupt()!

Thanks,
