(Can you give this patch a try and review my locking fixes ? I'm uncomfortable modifying cpufreq locking before getting this fix correct in the first place) OK, I've tried to clean it up the best I could, but please test this with concurrent cpu hotplug and cpufreq add/remove in loops. I'm sure we will make other interesting findings. This is step one of fixing the overall cpufreq locking dependency mess.
