Actually it seems this bug is already fixed in linux-next:

commit f8b587055a793c7719f0d4f41b7b4aeeef43aa2d
Author: Ezequiel Garcia <ezequiel.garcia at free-electrons.com>
Date:   Wed Mar 20 21:38:07 2013 +0000

    thermal: Fix compiler warning
    
    The following warning is obtained when CONFIG_NET is not defined:
    
    In file included from drivers/thermal/mvebu_thermal.c:27:0:
    include/linux/thermal.h:254:12: warning: 'thermal_generate_netlink_event'
    defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
    
    This patch fixes the warning by properly inlining
    thermal_generate_netlink_event().

Your patch also seems correct, but it would conflict with Ezequiel's.
The problem was apparently that you removed the 'inline' keyword
in 8ab3e6a08a "thermal: Use thermal zone device id in netlink messages",
I assume by accident, since defining a non-inline function in a header
file is obviously wrong.
