Hmm... strange
It can happen if thermal didn't work.
It seems driver can't read data from register.

Oops, really ?
I think you can't apply it on renesas-devel-20160127-v4.5-rc1

# I'm not sure why, but latest thermal branch, linus/master, linux-next/master
# doesn't have problem patch 850ddee1144("thermal: improve hot trip handling")
# So above patch is not needed

I think this is r8a7794 specific issue, but your patch looks sane for me...
