If the thermal subsystem returne -EPROBE_DEFER or any other error when hwmon calls devm_thermal_zone_of_sensor_register(), this is silently ignored. I ran into this with an incorrectly defined thermal zone, making it non-existing and thus this call failed with -EPROBE_DEFER assuming it would appear later. The sensor was still added which is incorrect: sensors must strictly be added after the thermal zones, so deferred probe must be respected.
