cpufreq_cpu_data[] = NULL; only happens when acpi_cpufreq driver init
fails;
Looks like acpi_cpufreq driver init is failing at some point in this
case and the driver is staying loaded after that failure. That in turn
seems similar to one other bug I saw recently.

Louis, Can you check whether cpufreq is really working In you case. Boot
normally and before you try suspending, just see whether
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq exists and if it does, cat
everything in that directory.

Thanks,
Venki
