Agreed with your intention. I just do not know if it makes sense to make
this change at this point. Maybe after you have split the code?

The above concern is simply from a non-functional perspective. If you do
this at this point of your series, your driver may have compilation
issues at this specific commit, in case your config does not have
CONFIG_CPU_THERMAL.

I recommend you moving this patch further in your series, to a place
where you have isolated the code that depends on CPU_THERMAL.
