Fix is sufficiently safe but problem might not be that serious.

I've checked cpufreq-git tree today and Dave Jones added the patch yesterday
to his tree. See
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/davej/cpufreq.git;a=summary

So I think it's best to do a backport to 2.6.30.x when .30 is released and
let the patch slip into .31 via Dave's tree.

But wait, I see that Dave added it to his fixes branch. So probable
Dave sends a pull request with fixes for .30 and then the patch is
merged into .30 anyway.


Thanks,

Andreas
