Hi Guenter,

this has been already fixed and the PR has been sent to Rafael:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/thermal/linux.git/tag/?h=thermal-v6.1-rc1-2

Thanks for sending the fix anyway

Commit 9326167058e8a ("thermal/core: Move set_trip_temp ops to the sysfs
code") changed the parameter check in trip_point_temp_store() from

if (!tz->ops->set_trip_temp)

to
if (!tz->ops->set_trip_temp && !tz->trips)

That means the condition will pass if either tz->ops->set_trip_temp
or tz->trips is not NULL. Subsequently, access to tz->trips is
checked again, but tz->ops->set_trip_temp is called unconditionally.
This will result in a crash if the set_trip_temp callback is not set.
Add check if tz->ops->set_trip_temp is NULL before trying to call it.
