The current code requires thermal zone creators to pass pointers to
writable ops structures to thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips()
which needs to modify the target struct thermal_zone_device_ops object
if the "critical" operation in it is NULL.

Moreover, the callers of thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() are
required to hold on to the struct thermal_zone_device_ops object passed
to it until the given thermal zone is unregistered.

Both of these requirements are quite inconvenient, so modify struct
thermal_zone_device to contain struct thermal_zone_device_ops as field and
make thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() copy the contents of the
struct thermal_zone_device_ops passed to it via a pointer (which can be
const now) to that field.

Also adjust the code using thermal zone ops accordingly and modify
thermal_of_zone_register() to use a local ops variable during
thermal zone registration so ops do not need to be freed in
thermal_of_zone_unregister() any more.

[ ... ]

  static void thermal_of_zone_unregister(struct thermal_zone_device *tz)
  {
  	struct thermal_trip *trips = tz->trips;
-	struct thermal_zone_device_ops *ops = tz->ops;
thermal_zone_device_disable(tz);
  	thermal_zone_device_unregister(tz);
  	kfree(trips);

Not related to the current patch but with patch 1/6. Freeing the trip points here will lead to a double free given it is already freed from thermal_zone_device_unregister() after the changes introduces in patch 1, right ?
