[ Upstream commit 68000a0d983f539c95ebe5dccd4f29535c7ac0af ]

Sysfs interface to update cooling device cur_state does not
currently holding cooling device lock sometimes leading to
stale values in cur_state if getting updated simultanelously
from user space and thermal framework. Adding the proper locking
code fixes this issue.
