Taking a look here, it looks pretty obvious:
  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/thermal/hisi_thermal.c#n414

data->nr_sensors = 1;
data->sensor = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*data->sensor) *
   data->nr_sensors, GFP_KERNEL);

Here as nr_sensors=1, we allocate only one structure for the array.
But then below that, we modify two entries, writing past the valid
array, and corrupting data when writing the second sensor values.

data->sensor[0].id = HI3660_BIG_SENSOR;
data->sensor[0].irq_name = "tsensor_a73";
data->sensor[0].data = data;

data->sensor[1].id = HI3660_LITTLE_SENSOR;
data->sensor[1].irq_name = "tsensor_a53";
data->sensor[1].data = data;

I suspect nr_sensors needs to be set to 2.

Nice work, Kees!

thanks
