Yes, it's really affected only 1st run after reboot. Thanks for pointing out
the fix.

In that case once fix is merged to Linus' tree (so that the git commit hash will
not change) we should add it to the test [1]:

struct tst_test test = {
	...
	.tags = (const struct tst_tag[]) {
			{"linux-git", "39b1bd1613b8f"},
			{}

This info will be printed on the test failure. And also the fix will be in our
doc [2].

(The fix is not yet in the next tree, because thermal-fixes branch is not
configured for linux-next git, although other linux-pm git branches are
configured [3]).

Kind regards,
Petr
