From: Leonard Crestez <leonard.crestez@xxxxxxx> commit 2abb0d5268ae7b5ddf82099b1f8d5aa8414637d4 upstream. There is no locking in this sysfs show function so stats printing can race with a devfreq_update_status called as part of freq switching or with initialization. Also add an assert in devfreq_update_status to make it clear that lock must be held by caller.
