[PATCH] cpufreq: Detect spurious invocations of update_policy_cpu()
From: Srivatsa S. Bhat
Date: Thu Sep 12 2013 - 08:04:17 EST
The function update_policy_cpu() is expected to be called when the policy->cpu
of a cpufreq policy is to be changed: ie., the new CPU nominated to become the
policy->cpu is different from the old one.
Print a warning if it is invoked with new_cpu == old_cpu, since such an
invocation might hint at a faulty logic in the caller.
