The initcalls like to play joke. In our case, the thermal-netlink
initcall is called after the thermal-core initcall but this one sends
a notification before the former is initialzed. No issue was spotted,
but it could lead to a memory corruption, so instead of relying on the
core_initcall for the thermal-netlink, let's initialize directly from
the thermal-core init routine, so we have full control of the init
ordering.

The generic netlink is initialized at subsys_initcall, so far after
the thermal init routine and the thermal generic netlink family
initialization.
On ŝome platforms, that leads to a memory corruption.
The fix was sent to netdev@ to move the genetlink framework
initialization at core_initcall.
Move the thermal core initialization to postcore level which is very
close to core level.

For posterity, we moved to core_initcall from fs_initcall since we had
removed netlink support from the thermal framework and we wanted to
initialise it as quickly as possible after cpufreq to allow early
mitigation possibility.
Given the addition of the new netlink-based API to thermal framework,
I think moving to postcore_initcall is an acceptable compromise.
