Return 0 on failure. This will cause the initialization of the driver to fail and prevent the driver from loading if the BIOS cannot handle the PCC interface command to "get frequency". Otherwise, the driver will load and display a very high value like "4294967274" (which is actually -EINVAL) for frequency: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq 4294967274 Signed-off-by: Naga Chumbalkar CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dave Jones --- diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c index 4f6f679f279..4a5a42b842a 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c @@ -195,7 +195,7 @@ static unsigned int pcc_get_freq(unsigned int cpu) cmd_incomplete: iowrite16(0, &pcch_hdr->status); spin_unlock(&pcc_lock); - return -EINVAL; + return 0; } static int pcc_cpufreq_target(struct cpufreq_policy *policy,
