It would be nice to document the fields. Especially id, tab_size,
cpufreq_state and node. For `node' we should describe the locking for
the list, and describe which list_head anchors this list.

The test for NULL `lock' is unneeded. In fact the `lock' argument
could be removed altogether - just use cooling_cpufreq_lock directly.

Can use

This code looks like it was written by two people.
/* One who does this */
/*And one who does this*/
The first one was right. Please go through all the comments in all the
patches and get the layout consistent?

Please document `notify_state', at its definition site. This reader
doesn't know what "notify_state == -1" *means*.

Now that we've dropped the lock, what prevents *cpufreq_device from
getting freed, or undesirably altered?

The 80-col contortions are ugly. Alternatives are
cpufreq_dev = kzalloc(sizeof(struct cpufreq_cooling_device),
GFP_KERNEL);
or, better,
cpufreq_dev = kzalloc(sizeof(*cpufreq_dev), GFP_KERNEL);

hm, "get_idr" is a poor name. One would expect it to do a lookup, but
it actually does an installation. That's a result of the poorly-named
idr_get_new(), I expect.

But we dropped the lock, so local variable cpufreq_dev_count is now
meaningless. What prevents a race here?

hm, what does this thing do. Needs a nice comment for the uninitiated,
please. Something which describes the overall roles, responsibilities
and general reasons for existence.
