This patch forces complete struct cpufreq_stats allocation for all cpus before
registering CPUFREQ_TRANSITION_NOTIFIER notifier, otherwise in some conditions
cpufreq_stat_notifier_trans() can be called in the middle of stats allocation,
in this case cpufreq_stats_table already exists, but stat->freq_table is NULL.
I'll queue it up for submission as v3.8 material.
Does it need to be marked as -stable material too?
It's very old and rare bug. I think you can leave it as is.
