Thank you for finding this issue. This was also an issue since the
beginning of that code. The modified global ops after first registration
which went through, was also previously there. Thus, we would need two
different patches for stable kernels.

For this one, please add the tag:
Fixes: 615510fe13bd2 ("thermal: devfreq_cooling: remove old power model
and use EM")

This patch would also go via stable tree for kernels v5.11+
Please read the process how to send a patch which will be merged to the
stable tree.

There will be a need to create another patch(es) for stable kernels with
Fixes: a76caf55e5b35 ("thermal: Add devfreq cooling")
In those kernels also the global ops is modified and might not support
properly many cooling devices. It's present in other stable kernels:
v5.10 and older

The fix looks good.
