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().
