Re: [PATCH] thermal/int340x_thermal: Prevent page fault on .set_mode() op

[Bartosz Szczepanek <bsz@semihalf.com>]

Hi Rui, Matthew,

I think this regression should be corrected still in the 5.8 release
cycle. It may cause kernel panic if .set_mode() is called before
current_uuid_store(), and from what I see both operations can be
triggered from sysfs. What I'm not 100% sure about is if we should
apply the above fix, or rather revert the driver to its default
behaviour of using uuid=0 if it wasn't set from userspace (this is how
it was before Matthew's commit). What do you think?

Best regards,
Bartosz
