Subject[PATCH] thermal: add thermal_zone_remove_device_groups()
From
Date
When offlining all cores on a CPU, the following system panic
occurs:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)

thermal_zone_create_device_group() sets attribute_groups in
thermal_zone_attribute_groups[] to tz->device.groups. But these
attributes_groups do not have name argument.

So when offlining all cores on CPU and executing
thermal_zone_device_unregister(), the panic occurs in strlen()
called from kernfs_name_hash() because name argument is NULL.

The patch adds thermal_zone_remove_device_groups() to free
tz->device.groups and set NULL pointer.
