[PATCH v3] cpufreq: cppc: Set fie_disabled to FIE_DISABLED if fails to create kworker_fie
Posted by Liao Chang 2 years, 4 months ago 
The function cppc_freq_invariance_init() may failed to create
kworker_fie, make it more robust by setting fie_disabled to FIE_DISBALED
to prevent an invalid pointer dereference in kthread_destroy_worker(),
which called from cppc_freq_invariance_exit().

v3:
Simplify cleanup code when invariance initialization fails.

v2:
Set fie_disabled to FIE_DISABLED when invariance initialization fails.

... here after the "---" line, this way this not-so-useful information will not
be committed while applying the patch.

Got it, I will move the "v2:... v3:..." lines below the "---" line in next patch.
