From: Dave Gerlach <d-gerlach@xxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit c998c07836f985b24361629dc98506ec7893e7a0 upstream. Currently the 'registered' member of the cpuidle_device struct is set to 1 during cpuidle_register_device. In this same function there are checks to see if the device is already registered to prevent duplicate calls to register the device, but this value is never set to 0 even on unregister of the device. Because of this, any attempt to call cpuidle_register_device after a call to cpuidle_unregister_device will fail which shouldn't be the case. To prevent this, set registered to 0 when the device is unregistered.
