[PATCH v2] thermal/drivers/rcar_thermal: fail probe when no sensors are probed

[Li Ximo <lixicaicai@gmail.com>]

From: Wang Haoran <haoranwangsec@gmail.com>

rcar_thermal_probe() returns success even when zero sensors were probed
(the per-sensor loop simply falls through with i == 0), leaving
common->head empty. rcar_thermal_suspend()/rcar_thermal_resume() then
call list_first_entry(&common->head, ...) unconditionally, and
list_first_entry() on an empty list does not return NULL: it returns
container_of() of the list head, i.e. a wild pointer into
struct rcar_thermal_common, which is dereferenced at
priv->chip->needs_suspend_resume and in the MMIO accesses that follow.
A malformed DT node with no MEM resource triggers this at every
suspend/resume cycle.

As suggested by Niklas Söderlund, fix this at the root instead of
tolerating an empty list in the PM callbacks: fail probe with -ENODEV
when no sensor was probed, since a successfully bound driver with zero
sensors is meaningless. The error path through rcar_thermal_remove()
already tolerates the empty list (it iterates with
rcar_thermal_for_each_priv()).

This issue was found by static analysis; we do not have R-Car hardware,
so this is compile-tested only.

v2: completely rework the fix per Niklas Söderlund's review: fail probe
with -ENODEV when no sensors are probed instead of guarding
suspend/resume.
