The patch below does not apply to the 3.12-stable tree.
If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm

I believe the crash can only happen on trees including

cpufreq: move call to __find_governor() to cpufreq_init_policy()
which appeared in v3.15-rc1.
Ok, then why did the patch ask it to be backported to older kernels?
That line was added by the next guy in the Signed-off-by chain.
Probably it was a mistake. Rafael?
The bug was introduced earlier, but it was just sitting there before.
The above commit only exposed it as far as I can say.
Greg, you can skip it for 3.12.y.
