First of all, this is not how to submit patches into the Linux kernel. Please consult the documentation.
Second, the driver registers its sensors with the hwmon core using HWMON_C_REGISTER_TZ, which should already result in its registration as thermal zone. If that does not work, please figure out why and fix it instead of re-implementing thermal zone registration in the driver.
Thanks, Guenter
