But this is a important patch to test, can you please give it a try as soon as you can? And confirm if this resolves your issues or not? (patch is attached too) ------------x------------------x------------------ From: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 23 Mar 2013 23:42:44 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: Set policy->cpus correctly from .init() With the addition of following patch: fcf8058 cpufreq: Simplify cpufreq_add_dev() cpufreq driver's .init() routine must initialize policy->cpus with mask of all possible cpus (Online + Offline) that share the clock. Then the core would copy this mask onto policy->related_cpus and will reset policy->cpus to carry only online cpus. acpi-cpufreq driver wasn't updated with this assumption and so sometimes when we try to hot[un]plug cpus at run time, sysfs directories gets corrupted. This patch fixes acpi-cpufreq driver against this corruption.
