Public bug reported:
Commit 97b1720a42f33fd21e6fbf30b6b3857a948e5633 ("Fix Coverity error in
release") closes the lockfile and hence we can now run multiple
instances of thermald.
The regression was caused by overzealous file descriptor leakage
cleanups to stop static analysis warnings. The locking should be
improved by:
1. Making the fd global
2. Closing and unlinking the lock file on abort exits or normal terminations
