cpufreq: Don't use cpu removed during cpufreq_driver_unregister
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This is how the core works:
cpufreq_driver_unregister()
 - subsys_interface_unregister()
   - for_each_cpu() call cpufreq_remove_dev(), i.e. 0,1,2,3,4 when we
     unregister.

cpufreq_remove_dev():
 - Remove policy node
 - Call cpufreq_add_dev() for next cpu, sharing mask with removed cpu.
   i.e. When cpu 0 is removed, we call it for cpu 1. And when called for cpu 2,
   we call it for cpu 3.
   - cpufreq_add_dev() would call cpufreq_driver->init()
   - init would return mask as AND of 2, 3 and 4 for cluster A7.
   - cpufreq core would do online_cpu && policy->cpus
     Here is the BUG(). Because cpu hasn't died but we have just unregistered
     the cpufreq driver, online cpu would still have cpu 2 in it. And so thing
     go bad again.

Solution: Keep cpumask of cpus that are registered with cpufreq core and clear
	  cpus when we get a call from subsys_interface_unregister() via
	  cpufreq_remove_dev().
