Subject: cpufreq: ondemand: update sampling rate only on right CPUs
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3e33ee9e0804748f1b7a01af9ba0e8e1e10f772f;p=linux-beck.git

cpufreq: ondemand: update sampling rate only on right CPUs

Fix cpufreq_gov_ondemand to skip CPU where another governor is used.

The bug present itself as NULL pointer access on the mutex_lock() call,
an can be reproduced on an SMP machine by setting the default governor
to anything other than ondemand, setting a single CPU's governor to
ondemand, then changing the sample rate by writing on:

> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate
