[PATCH 03/15] powernow-k7: Work when kernel is compiled for SMP

From: Ben Collins
Date: Wed Jan 04 2006 - 17:06:37 EST


On a UP system with SMP compiled kernel, the powernow-k7 module would not
initialize (returned -ENODEV). Not sure why policy->cpu != 0 for UP
systems, but since policy->cpu isn't used anywhere, just check for
num_cpus in the system, and fail of it's > 1.
