4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f451014692ae34e587b00de6745e16661cf734d8 ] If new_policy is set in cpufreq_online(), the policy object has just been created and its real_cpus mask has been zeroed on allocation, and the driver's ->init() callback should not touch it. It doesn't need to be cleared again, so don't do that. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
