In some configurations, topology_physical_package_id() is trivially defined as '-1' for any input, resulting a comparison that is always true: drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c: In function ‘cpufreq_set_cur_state’: drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c:137:36: error: self-comparison always evaluates to true [-Werror=tautological-compare] By introducing a temporary variable, we can tell gcc that this is intentional.
