thermal: core: Delay exposing sysfs interface
There's a race between initializing the governor and userspace accessing the sysfs interface. From time to time the Intel graphics CI shows this signature: <1>[] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page <6>[] PGD 0 P4D 0 <4>[] Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI <4>[] CPU: 3 UID: 0 PID: 562 Comm: thermald Not tainted 6.14.0-rc4-CI_DRM_16208-g7e37396f86d8+ #1 <4>[] Hardware name: Intel Corporation Twin Lake Client Platform/AlderLake-N LP5 RVP, BIOS TWLNFWI1.R00.5222.A01.2405290634 05/29/2024 <4>[] RIP: 0010:policy_show+0x1a/0x40 thermald tries to read the policy file between the sysfs files being created and the governor set by thermal_set_governor(), which causes the NULL pointer dereference. Similarly to the hwmon interface, delay exposing the sysfs files to when the governor is already set.
