If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 91fb28bcc08b3736a25efb07473a1141e99e6715 Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed May 11 17:48:41 2022 +0200 cpufreq: Reorganize checks in cpufreq_offline() [ Upstream commit e1e962c5b9edbc628a335bcdbd010331a12d3e5b ] Notice that cpufreq_offline() only needs to check policy_is_inactive() once and rearrange the code in there to make that happen. No expected functional impact. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
