macintosh/therm_adt746x: Fix sysfs attributes lifetime
Looking at drivers/macintosh/therm_adt746x.c, the sysfs files are created in thermostat_init() and removed in thermostat_exit(), which are the driver's init and exit functions. These files are backed-up by a per-device structure, so it looks like the wrong thing to do: the sysfs files have a lifetime longer than the data structure that is backing it up. I think that sysfs files creation should be moved to the end of probe_thermostat() and sysfs files removal should be moved to the beginning of remove_thermostat().
