[PATCH 4.9 18/67] cpufreq: Do not clear real_cpus mask on policy init

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit f451014692ae34e587b00de6745e16661cf734d8 ]

If new_policy is set in cpufreq_online(), the policy object has just
been created and its real_cpus mask has been zeroed on allocation,
and the driver's ->init() callback should not touch it.

It doesn't need to be cleared again, so don't do that.
