No, it is callback of thermal layer, prototype it to return int.

I moved this if(!np) into parse_dt function, no problem again.
(in fact have already done this, but it is missed in this sending)

In fact PRCMU firmware is polling the thermal sensor, and if it meets
threshold, the PRCMU will write this event into share memory (shared
between PRCMU and ARM) and trigger an interrupt to ARM.
There may be other events passed via share memory, so it is better to
handle this kind of irq as fast as possible(it is always the policy),
and threaded irq satisfies this case better then the traditional one.

devm_* is used to allocate resources, so no need to free them manually.
