0e64a0c has this cleanup, which isn't equivalent to the previous code:
@@ -779,11 +834,12 @@ static int powernow_k8_cpu_init_acpi(struct powernow_k8_data *data)

}
This got fixed in 2c701b1 in 2.6.31-rc8, so this is most likely the
problem that Kurt was encountering.
Kurt, could you try 2.6.31 and see if you still experience the issue? If
not, this can be closed.
