[PATCH 5/5] cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: Clean up hot plug notifier callback.

Show all headers | View raw

This driver has two issues.  First, it tries to fiddle with the hot
plugged CPU's MSR on the UP_PREPARE event, at a time when the CPU is
not yet online.  Second, the driver sets the "boost-disable" bit for a
CPU when going down, but does not clear the bit again if the CPU comes
up again due to DOWN_FAILED.

This patch fixes the issues by changing the driver to react to the
ONLINE/DOWN_FAILED events instead of UP_PREPARE.  As an added benefit,
the driver also becomes symmetric with respect to the hot plug
mechanism.
