[PATCH 08/10] cpufreq: Fix broken usage of governor->owner's refcount

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Governor's owner refcount usage was broken. We should increment refcount only
when CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_INIT event has come and should decrement only if
CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT has come.

Lets fix it.
