When registering a thermal zone device, we currently return -EINVAL in
four cases. This makes it a little hard to debug the real cause of the
failure.
Print some error messages to make it easier for developer to figure out
what happened.

Please use terminating newlines like:
pr_err("Error: No thermal zone type defined\n");
[]
> + pr_err("Error: Thermal zone name (%s) too long, should be under %d chars",
etc...
