With a recent change the logic here is changed a bit and I just figured out it is something we don't want. Consider we have four CPUs (0,1,2,3) managed by a policy and policy->cpu is set to 0. Now we are suspending and hence we call __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare() for cpu 1, 2 & 3.. With the current code we always call cpufreq_nominate_new_policy_cpu() for cpu 1, 2 & 3 whereas we should skipped most of __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare() routine. Lets fix it by moving the check for !frozen inside the first if block.
