__cpufreq_stats_create_table always gets pass the valid and real policy struct. So, there's no need to call cpufreq_cpu_get() to get the policy again. Change-Id: I0136b3e67018ee3af2335906407f55d8c6219f71 Signed-off-by: Saravana Kannan <skannan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Viresh/Rafael, These 3 patches is the approximate code I have in mind. Approximate because: * I inserted one question as a comment into the code. * If the patch doesn't have any bugs, the plan is to remove cpufreq_generic_get() and references to it. This takes care of the "don't advertise before it's ready for use" rule. Viresh, I think the locking updates needs to be done in addition to this.
