ff4b8a57f0 Merge branch 'driver-core-next' into Linux 3.2
This resolves the conflict in the arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/s3c6400.c file,
and it fixes the build error in the arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c
file, that the merge did not catch.

The microcode_core.c patch was provided by Stephen Rothwell
<sfr@canb.auug.org.au> who was invaluable in the merge issues involved
with the large sysdev removal process in the driver-core tree.

a8eb28480e [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: Fix indexing issue
The driver uses the pstate number from the status register as index in
its table of ACPI pstates (powernow_table). This is wrong as this is
not a 1-to-1 mapping.

For example we can have _PSS information to just utilize Pstate 0 and
Pstate 4, ie.

  powernow-k8: Core Performance Boosting: on.
  powernow-k8:    0 : pstate 0 (2200 MHz)
  powernow-k8:    1 : pstate 4 (1400 MHz)

In this example the driver's powernow_table has just 2 entries. Using
the pstate number (4) as index into this table is just plain wrong.

d08de0c19c [CPUFREQ] update lpj only if frequency has changed
During scaling up of cpu frequency, loops_per_jiffy
is updated upon invoking PRECHANGE notifier.
If setting to new frequency fails in cpufreq driver,
lpj is left at incorrect value.

Hence update lpj only if cpu frequency is changed,
i.e. upon invoking POSTCHANGE notifier.

Penalty would be that during time period between
changing cpu frequency & invocation of POSTCHANGE
notifier, udelay(x) may not gurantee minimal delay
of 'x' us for frequency scaling up operation.

Perhaps a better solution would be to define
CPUFREQ_ABORTCHANGE & handle accordingly, but then
it would be more intrusive (using ABORTCHANGE may
help drivers also; if any has registered notifier
and expect POST for a PRECHANGE, their needs can
be taken care using ABORT)

226dd0193f [CPUFREQ] cpufreq:userspace: fix cpu_cur_freq updation
CPU frequency is guranteed to be changed on notifier callback with
CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE. Notifier callback with CPUFREQ_PRECHANGE does
not gurantee a change in frequency; after it, if cpufreq driver is
unable to change CPU to new frequency. This results in wrong
information being fed to user (if setting CPU frequency fails)
upon doing like,

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed

Hence in userspace governer update cpu_cur_freq only if notifier
has been called with POSTCHANGE.

8a25a2fd12 cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class to a regular subsystem
This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem
and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are
implemented as subsystem interfaces now.

After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure
from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

1c78217fc8 cpufreq: OMAP: fix freq_table leak
We use a single frequency table for multiple CPUs. But, with
OMAP4, since we have multiple CPUs, the cpu_init call for CPU1
causes freq_table previously allocated for CPU0 to be overwritten.
In addition, we dont free the table on exit path.

We solve this by maintaining an atomic type counter to ensure
just a single table exists at a given time.

ffe4f0f115 cpufreq: OMAP: only supports OPP library
OMAP2 is the only family using clk_[init|exit]_cpufreq_table, however,
the cpufreq code does not currently use clk_init_cpufreq_table. As a
result, it is unusuable for OMAP2 and only usable only on platforms
using OPP library.

Remove the unbalanced clk_exit_cpufreq_table().  Any platforms where
OPPs are not availble will fail on init because a freq table will not
be properly initialized.

022ac03b45 cpufreq: OMAP: notify even with bad boot frequency
Sometimes, bootloaders starts up with a frequency which is not
in the OPP table. At cpu_init, policy->cur contains the frequency
we pick at boot.  It is possible that system might have fixed
it's boot frequency later on as part of power initialization.
After this condition, the first call to omap_target results in the
following:

omap_getspeed(actual device frequency) != policy->cur(frequency that
cpufreq thinks that the system is at), and it is possible that
freqs.old == freqs.new (because the governor requested a scale down).

We exit without triggering the notifiers in the current code, which
does'nt let code which depends on cpufreq_notify_transition to have
accurate information as to what the system frequency is.

Instead, we do a normal transition if policy->cur is wrong, then,
freqs.old will be the actual cpu frequency, freqs.new will be the
actual new cpu frequency and all required notifiers have the accurate
information.

On OMAP SMP configuartion, both processors share the voltage

Also, update lpj with reference value to avoid progressive error.

Adjust _both_ the per-cpu loops_per_jiffy and global lpj. Calibrate
them with with reference to the initial values to avoid a
progressively bigger and bigger error in the value over time.

While at this, re-use the notifiers for UP/SMP since on UP machine or

0073f538c1 [CPUFREQ] ARM Exynos4210 PM/Suspend compatibility with different bootloaders
We have various bootloaders for Exynos4210 machines. Some of they
set the ARM core frequency at boot time even when the boot is a resume
from suspend-to-RAM. Such changes may create inconsistency in the
data of CPUFREQ driver and have incurred hang issues with suspend-to-RAM.

This patch enables to save and restore CPU frequencies with pm-notifier and
sets the frequency at the initial (boot-time) value so that there wouldn't
be any inconsistency between bootloader and kernel. This patch does not
use CPUFREQ's suspend/resume callbacks because they are syscore-ops, which
do not allow to use mutex that is being used by regulators that are used by
the target function.

This also prevents any CPUFREQ transitions during suspend-resume context,
which could be dangerous at noirq-context along with regulator framework.

826e570bb2 [CPUFREQ] e_powersaver: Allow user to lower maximum voltage
Add new module option "set_max_voltage".
One of the lessons learned from Adaptive Powersaver is that voltage values
returned by processor are for worst case scenario. But required voltage
is changing with CPU temperature. And even processors produced in the same
batch can have different minimum voltage necessary for stable work at
specified frequency.
On Elonex Webbook, once system starts, temperature never drops below
48 deg. C. Loading module after systems start allows user to lower CPU
voltage and still have stable system.
Sadly C7 doesn't allow code to set frequency or voltage from outside limits.
If you ask it to set voltage lower then minimum it will ignore you. Thats
why it isn't possible to change minimum voltage for minimum frequency too.
Changing maximum voltage on Elonex Webbook leads to very good results. Looks
like VIA C7 1.6GHz 1084mV can safetly run at 892mV. This means 83% of
orginal value. If same percentage applies to power generated it means 12.5W
in the place of 15W. Not much, but it is better then nothing.
Only C7-M makes it possible.
If voltage is too low by 16mV or more you will experience kernel panic.
If voltage is too low by 32mV or more you will experience system freeze.

ed361bf080 [CPUFREQ] e_powersaver: Additional checks
Some systems are using 1,2Ghz@844mV processors running at 600MHz@796mV.
Try to detect such systems and don't touch anything on it. If CPU doesn't have
P-States in BIOS it should run at maximum frequency.
Allow user to bypass checks by means of two new options.
Don't set frequency to maximum on module unloading to avoid bada boom.
It is also possible that some processors may have incorrect values in min/max
registers caused by error in manufacturing process. Probably it would be BIOS
job to set them to right frequency and P-States tables would have correct
values inside.

6beea0cda8 nohz: Fix update_ts_time_stat idle accounting
update_ts_time_stat currently updates idle time even if we are in
iowait loop at the moment. The only real users of the idle counter
(via get_cpu_idle_time_us) are CPU governors and they expect to get
cumulative time for both idle and iowait times.
The value (idle_sleeptime) is also printed to userspace by print_cpu
but it prints both idle and iowait times so the idle part is misleading.

Let's clean this up and fix update_ts_time_stat to account both counters
properly and update consumers of idle to consider iowait time as well.
If we do this we might use get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us from other
contexts as well and we will get expected values.

a9d3d20680 [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: Don't notify of successful transition if we failed (vid case).
Before this patch if we failed the vid transition would still try to
submit the "new" frequencies to cpufreq.
That is incorrect - also we could submit a non-existing frequency value
which would cause cpufreq to crash. The ultimate fix is in cpufreq
to deal with incorrect values, but this patch improves the error
recovery in the AMD powernowk8 driver.

The failure that was reported was as follows:

powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3700+ (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)
powernow-k8: fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12
powernow-k8: fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0xa
powernow-k8: fid 0xc (2000 MHz), vid 0x8
powernow-k8: fid 0xe (2200 MHz), vid 0x8
Marking TSC unstable due to cpufreq changes
powernow-k8: fid trans failed, fid 0x2, curr 0x0
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880807e07b78
IP: [<ffffffff81479163>] cpufreq_stats_update+0x46/0x5b
...

And transition fails and data->currfid ends up with 0. Since
the machine does not support 800Mhz value when the calculation is
done ('find_khz_freq_from_fid(data->currfid);') it reports the
new frequency as 800000 which is bogus. This patch fixes
the issue during target setting.

The patch however does not fix the issue in 'powernowk8_cpu_init'
where the pol->cur can also be set with the 800000 value:

          pol->cur = find_khz_freq_from_fid(data->currfid);
  dprintk("policy current frequency %d kHz\n", pol->cur);

  /* min/max the cpu is capable of */
  if (cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo(pol, data->powernow_table)) {

The fix for that looks to update cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo to
check pol->cur.... but that would cause an regression in how the
acpi-cpufreq driver works (it sets cpu->cur after calling
cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo). Instead the fix will be to let
cpufreq gracefully handle bogus data (another patch).

46a310b80b [CPUFREQ] Don't set stat->last_index to -1 if the pol->cur has incorrect value.
If the driver submitted an non-existing pol>cur value (say it
used the default initialized value of zero), when the cpufreq
stats tries to setup its initial values it incorrectly sets
stat->last_index to -1 (or 0xfffff...). And cpufreq_stats_update
tries to update at that index location and fails.

This can be caused by:

stat->last_index = freq_table_get_index(stat, policy->cur);

not finding the appropiate frequency in the table (b/c the policy->cur
is wrong) and we end up crashing. The fix however is
concentrated in the 'cpufreq_stats_update' as the last_index
(and old_index) are updated there. Which means it can reset
the last_index to -1 again and on the next iteration cause a crash.

Without this patch, the following crash is observed:

2d06d8c49a [CPUFREQ] use dynamic debug instead of custom infrastructure
With dynamic debug having gained the capability to report debug messages
also during the boot process, it offers a far superior interface for
debug messages than the custom cpufreq infrastructure. As a first step,
remove the old cpufreq_debug_printk() function and replace it with a call
to the generic pr_debug() function.

How can dynamic debug be used on cpufreq? You need a kernel which has
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled.

To enabled debugging during runtime, mount debugfs and

$ echo -n 'module cpufreq +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

for debugging the complete "cpufreq" module. To achieve the same goal during
boot, append

	ddebug_query="module cpufreq +p"

as a boot parameter to the kernel of your choice.

27ecddc2a9 [CPUFREQ] CPU hotplug, re-create sysfs directory and symlinks
When we discover CPUs that are affected by each other's
frequency/voltage transitions, the first CPU gets a sysfs directory
created, and rest of the siblings get symlinks. Currently, when we
hotplug off only the first CPU, all of the symlinks and the sysfs
directory gets removed. Even though rest of the siblings are still
online and functional, they are orphaned, and no longer governed by
cpufreq.

This patch, given the above scenario, creates a sysfs directory for
the first sibling and symlinks for the rest of the siblings.

Please note the recursive call, it was rather too ugly to roll it
out. And the removal of redundant NULL setting (it is already taken
care of near the top of the function).

e00e56dfd3 cpufreq: Use syscore_ops for boot CPU suspend/resume (v2)
The cpufreq subsystem uses sysdev suspend and resume for
executing cpufreq_suspend() and cpufreq_resume(), respectively,
during system suspend, after interrupts have been switched off on the
boot CPU, and during system resume, while interrupts are still off on
the boot CPU.  In both cases the other CPUs are off-line at the
relevant point (either they have been switched off via CPU hotplug
during suspend, or they haven't been switched on yet during resume).
For this reason, although it may seem that cpufreq_suspend() and
cpufreq_resume() are executed for all CPUs in the system, they are
only called for the boot CPU in fact, which is quite confusing.

To remove the confusion and to prepare for elimiating sysdev
suspend and resume operations from the kernel enirely, convernt
cpufreq to using a struct syscore_ops object for the boot CPU
suspend and resume and rename the callbacks so that their names
reflect their purpose.  In addition, put some explanatory remarks
into their kerneldoc comments.

8f5bc2abfd [CPUFREQ] fix BUG on cpufreq policy init failure
cpufreq_register_driver sets cpufreq_driver to a structure owned (and
placed) in the caller's memory. If cpufreq policy fails in its ->init
function, sysdev_driver_register returns nonzero in
cpufreq_register_driver. Now, cpufreq_register_driver returns an error
without setting cpufreq_driver back to NULL.

Usually cpufreq policy modules are unloaded because they propagate the
error to the module init function and return that.

So a later access to any member of cpufreq_driver causes bugs like:

6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

3f78a9f7fc [CPUFREQ] add sampling_down_factor tunable to improve ondemand performance
Adds a new global tunable, sampling_down_factor.  Set to 1 it makes no
changes from existing behavior, but set to greater than 1 (e.g. 100)
it acts as a multiplier for the scheduling interval for reevaluating
load when the CPU is at its top speed due to high load.  This improves
performance by reducing the overhead of load evaluation and helping
the CPU stay at its top speed when truly busy, rather than shifting
back and forth in speed.  This tunable has no effect on behavior at
lower speeds/lower CPU loads.

This patch is against 2.6.36-rc6.

This patch should help solve kernel bug 19672 "ondemand is slow".

6f4f2723d0 [CPUFREQ] x86 cpufreq: Make trace_power_frequency cpufreq driver independent
and fix the broken case if a core's frequency depends on others.

trace_power_frequency was only implemented in a rather ungeneric way
in acpi-cpufreq driver's target() function only.
-> Move the call to trace_power_frequency to
   cpufreq.c:cpufreq_notify_transition() where CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE
   notifier is triggered.
   This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq drivers

trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly when
the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores' frequency depend
on each other.
-> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu
   which gets switched automatically fixes this.

Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my initial
quick shot version which are integrated in this patch:
- Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names)
- Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id
- Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id

19379b1181 ondemand: Make the iowait-is-busy time a sysfs tunable
Pavel Machek pointed out that not all CPUs have an efficient
idle at high frequency. Specifically, older Intel and various
AMD cpus would get a higher powerusage when copying files from
USB.

Mike Chan pointed out that the same is true for various ARM
chips as well.

Thomas Renninger suggested to make this a sysfs tunable with a
reasonable default.

This patch adds a sysfs tunable for the new behavior, and uses
a very simple function to determine a reasonable default,
depending on the CPU vendor/type.

6b8fcd9029 ondemand: Solve a big performance issue by counting IOWAIT time as busy
The ondemand cpufreq governor uses CPU busy time (e.g. not-idle
time) as a measure for scaling the CPU frequency up or down.
If the CPU is busy, the CPU frequency scales up, if it's idle,
the CPU frequency scales down. Effectively, it uses the CPU busy
time as proxy variable for the more nebulous "how critical is
performance right now" question.

This algorithm falls flat on its face in the light of workloads
where you're alternatingly disk and CPU bound, such as the ever
popular "git grep", but also things like startup of programs and
maildir using email clients... much to the chagarin of Andrew
Morton.

This patch changes the ondemand algorithm to count iowait time
as busy, not idle, time. As shown in the breakdown cases above,
iowait is performance critical often, and by counting iowait,
the proxy variable becomes a more accurate representation of the
"how critical is performance" question.

The problem and fix are both verified with the "perf timechar"
tool.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing

e2f74f355e [ACPI/CPUFREQ] Introduce bios_limit per cpu cpufreq sysfs interface
This interface is mainly intended (and implemented) for ACPI _PPC BIOS
frequency limitations, but other cpufreq drivers can also use it for
similar use-cases.

Why is this needed:

Currently it's not obvious why cpufreq got limited.
People see cpufreq/scaling_max_freq reduced, but this could have
happened by:
  - any userspace prog writing to scaling_max_freq
  - thermal limitations
  - hardware (_PPC in ACPI case) limitiations

Therefore export bios_limit (in kHz) to:
  - Point the user that it's the BIOS (broken or intended) which limits
    frequency
  - Export it as a sysfs interface for userspace progs.
    While this was a rarely used feature on laptops, there will appear
    more and more server implemenations providing "Green IT" features like
    allowing the service processor to limit the frequency. People want
    to know about HW/BIOS frequency limitations.

All ACPI P-state driven cpufreq drivers are covered with this patch:
  - powernow-k8
  - powernow-k7
  - acpi-cpufreq

Tested with a patched DSDT which limits the first two cores (_PPC returns 1)
via _PPC, exposed by bios_limit:
# echo 2200000 >cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
# cat cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
2600000
2600000
2200000
2200000
# #scaling_max_freq shows general user/thermal/BIOS limitations

# cat cpu*/cpufreq/bios_limit
2600000
2600000
2800000
2800000
# #bios_limit only shows the HW/BIOS limitation

90e41bac10 [CPUFREQ] Fix stale cpufreq_cpu_governor pointer
Dave,

Attached is an update of my patch against the cpufreq fixes branch.

Before applying the patch I compiled and booted the tree to see if the panic
was still there -- to my surprise it was not.  This is because of the conversion
of cpufreq_cpu_governor to a char[].

While the panic is kaput, the problem of stale data continues and my patch is
still valid.  It is possible to end up with the wrong governor after hotplug
events because CPUFREQ_DEFAULT_GOVERNOR is statically linked to a default,
while the cpu siblings may have had a different governor assigned by a user.

ie) the patch is still needed in order to keep the governors assigned
properly when hotplugging devices

395913d0b1 [CPUFREQ] remove rwsem lock from CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP call (second call site)
remove rwsem lock from CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP call (second call site)

commit	42a06f2166

Missed a call site for CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP to remove the rwlock taken around the
teardown. To make a long story short, the rwlock write-lock causes a circular
dependency with cancel_delayed_work_sync(), because the timer handler takes the
read lock.

Note that all callers to __cpufreq_set_policy are taking the rwsem. All sysfs
callers (writers) hold the write rwsem at the earliest sysfs calling stage.

However, the rwlock write-lock is not needed upon governor stop.

0e625ac153 [CPUFREQ] ondemand - Use global sysfs dir for tuning settings
Ondemand has only global variables for userspace tunings via sysfs.
But they were exposed per CPU which wrongly implies to the user that
his settings are applied per cpu. Also locking sysfs against concurrent
access won't be necessary anymore after deprecation time.

This means the ondemand config dir is moved:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/ondemand ->
     /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand

The old files will still exist, but reading or writing to them will
result in one (printk_once) deprecation msg to syslog per file.

ce6c3997c2 [CPUFREQ] Re-enable cpufreq suspend and resume code
Commit 4bc5d34135 is broken and causes regressions:

(1) cpufreq_driver->resume() and ->suspend() were only called on
__powerpc__, but you could set them on all architectures. In fact,
->resume() was defined and used before the PPC-related commit
42d4dc3f4e complained about in 4bc5d34135.

(2) Therfore, the resume functions in acpi_cpufreq and speedstep-smi
would never be called.

(3) This means speedstep-smi would be unusuable after suspend or resume.

The _real_ problem was calling cpufreq_driver->get() with interrupts
off, but it re-enabling interrupts on some platforms. Why is ->get()
necessary?

Some systems like to change the CPU frequency behind our
back, especially during BIOS-intensive operations like suspend or
resume. If such systems also use a CPU frequency-dependant timing loop,
delays might be off by large factors. Therefore, we need to ascertain
as soon as possible that the CPU frequency is indeed at the speed we
think it is. You can do this two ways: either setting it anew, or trying
to get it. The latter is what was done, the former also has the same IRQ
issue.

So, let's try something different: defer the checking to after interrupts
are re-enabled, by calling cpufreq_update_policy() (via schedule_work()).
Timings may be off until this later stage, so let's watch out for
resume regressions caused by the deferred handling of frequency changes
behind the kernel's back.

The output continues on every do_dbs_timer ondemand freq checking poll.
This regression was introduced by git commit:
3f4a782b5c

The policy is released when the cpufreq device is removed in:
__cpufreq_remove_dev():
	/* if this isn't the CPU which is the parent of the kobj, we
	 * only need to unlink, put and exit
	 */

Not creating the symlink is not sever at all.
As long as:
sysfs_remove_link(&sys_dev->kobj, "cpufreq");
handles it gracefully that the symlink did not exist.
Possibly no error should be returned at all, because ondemand
governor would still provide the same functionality.
Userspace in userspace gov case might be confused if the link
is missing.

26d204afa1 [CPUFREQ] Fix NULL pointer dereference regression in conservative governor
Commit ee88415caf
introduced this regression when it removed enable bit in cpu_dbs_info_s.
That added a possibility of dbs_cpufreq_notifier getting called for a
CPU that is not yet managed by conservative governor. That will happen
as the transition notifier is set as soon as one CPU switches to
conservative governor and other CPUs can get a NULL pointer dereference
without the enable bit check. Add the enable bit back again.

7d26e2d5e2 [CPUFREQ] Eliminate the recent lockdep warnings in cpufreq
Commit b14893a62c although it was very
much needed to properly cleanup ondemand timer, opened-up a can of worms
related to locking dependencies in cpufreq.

Patch here defines the need for dbs_mutex and cleans up its usage in
ondemand governor. This also resolves the lockdep warnings reported here

245b2e70ea percpu: clean up percpu variable definitions
Percpu variable definition is about to be updated such that all percpu
symbols including the static ones must be unique.  Update percpu
variable definitions accordingly.

* as,cfq: rename ioc_count uniquely

* cpufreq: rename cpu_dbs_info uniquely

* xen: move nesting_count out of xen_evtchn_do_upcall() and rename it

* mm: move ratelimits out of balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_nr() and
  rename it

* ipv4,6: rename cookie_scratch uniquely

* x86 perf_counter: rename prev_left to pmc_prev_left, irq_entry to
  pmc_irq_entry and nmi_entry to pmc_nmi_entry

* perf_counter: rename disable_count to perf_disable_count

* ftrace: rename test_event_disable to ftrace_test_event_disable

* kmemleak: rename test_pointer to kmemleak_test_pointer

* mce: rename next_interval to mce_next_interval

[ Impact: percpu usage cleanups, no duplicate static percpu var names ]

cef9615a85 [CPUFREQ] ondemand: Uncouple minimal sampling rate from HZ in NO_HZ case
With this patch you have following minimal sampling rate restrictions:

Kernel restrictions:
If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, the limit is 10ms fixed.
If CONFIG_NO_HZ is not set or no_hz=off boot parameter is used, the
limits depend on the CONFIG_HZ option:
HZ=1000: min=20000us  (20ms)
HZ=250:  min=80000us  (80ms)
HZ=100:  min=200000us (200ms)

HW restrictions:
Do not sample/poll more often than HW latency * 100  exported by the low
level cpufreq HW driver

The higher value of above restrictions is the minimal sampling rate
that can be set (and can be seen via ondemand/sampling_rate_min sysfs file)

Default sampling rate still is HW latency * 1000, but this will now end
up in lower values on latest (Intel and AMD) hardware as these can switch
really fast and sampling rate mostly was limited to the 80ms or 200ms
(depending on whether HZ=250 or HZ=1000 is used).
