The patch titled cpu-hotplug-make-register_cpu_notifier-init-time-only-fix fix has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is cpu-hotplug-make-register_cpu_notifier-init-time-only-fix-fix.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: cpu-hotplug-make-register_cpu_notifier-init-time-only-fix fix From: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@xxxxxxxxxx> cpufreq_register_driver() has to made available at all time (not init only). Hence, we should be using hotplug version of the cpu notifier register/unregister function instead of the _init time only_ version.
