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.
