While adding the following change, this should have been take care of:
ab09b0744a99 ("thermal: intel: hfi: Enable notification interrupt")

But the above change didn't add this line, which this patch is
changing. We can add:

Fixes: ab09b0744a99 ("thermal: intel: hfi: Enable notification
interrupt")

Do you want me to send another PATCH with fixes.

Not urgent. 6.2 should be fine.
