BACKPORT: thermal/drivers/hisi: Remove pointless lock

The threaded interrupt inspect the sensors structure to look in the temp
threshold field, but this field is read-only in all the code, except in the
probe function before the threaded interrupt is set. In other words there
is not race window in the threaded interrupt when reading the field value.
