Prepare for eliminating get_mode().

Might be worthwhile to explain (not only in the subject) what you are
doing here.

After this patch is applied on top of the thermal 'testing' branch,
there are still local instances of thermal_device_mode in
	drivers/thermal/st/stm_thermal.c
	drivers/thermal/ti-soc-thermal/ti-thermal-common.c

If there is a reason not to replace those, it might make sense to explain
it here.


My understanding is that these two are sensor devices which are "plugged"
into their "parent" thermal zone device. The latter is the "proper" tzd.
They both use thermal_zone_of_device_ops instead of thermal_zone_device_ops.
The former doesn't even have get_mode(). The thermal core, when it calls
get_mode(), operates on the "parent" thermal zone devices.

Consequently, the drivers you mention use their "mode" members for
their private purpose, not for the purpose of storing the "parent"
thermal zone device mode.

Andrzej
