we need to go over all the thermal_instance list of a cooling device
to decide which cooling state to put the cooling device to.

But at this time, as a cooling device may be referenced in multiple
thermal zones, we need to lock the list first in case
another thermal zone is updating this cooling device.

Why do you need to lock while going through the tz thermal_instances?

Locking the above operation should be enough, no?
we need to add this thermal_instance to the cooling device
thermal_instance list.
say, what if another thermal zone that references this cooling device is
being unregistered at the same time?

thanks,
