[PATCH] [166/223] acpi-cpufreq: fix a memleak when unloading driver

[Andi Kleen]

2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>

commit dab5fff14df2cd16eb1ad4c02e83915e1063fece upstream.

We didn't free per_cpu(acfreq_data, cpu)->freq_table
when acpi_freq driver is unloaded.

Resulting in the following messages in /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak:

unreferenced object 0xf6450e80 (size 64):
