Fair enough, I will change this and use explicit rcu_read_lock/unlock()
in the thermal/DTPM code together with this above function.
I will add comment to it that it needs to be called under the RCU read
section locked.

Then also it would be easier to handle the function names in patch 10/23
that you have also commented.
