Accesses to thermal zones, and with it the thermal zone device mutex, are still possible after the thermal zone device has been unregistered. For example, thermal_zone_get_temp() can be called from temp_show() in thermal_sysfs.c if the sysfs attribute was opened before the thermal device was unregistered. Move the call to mutex_destroy from thermal_zone_device_unregister() to thermal_release() to ensure that it is only destroyed after it is guaranteed to be no longer accessed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
