[PATCH] cpufreq: powernv: fix stack bloat and NR_CPUS limitation
From: John Hubbard
Date: Thu Oct 17 2019 - 20:04:45 EST
The following build warning occurred on powerpc 64-bit builds:
drivers/cpufreq/powernv-cpufreq.c: In function 'init_chip_info':
drivers/cpufreq/powernv-cpufreq.c:1070:1: warning: the frame size of 1040 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
This is due to putting 1024 bytes on the stack:
unsigned int chip[256];
...and while looking at this, it also has a bug: it fails with a stack
overrun, if CONFIG_NR_CPUS > 256.
Fix both problems by dynamically allocating based on CONFIG_NR_CPUS.
Fixes: 053819e0bf840 ("cpufreq: powernv: Handle throttling due to Pmax capping at chip level")

Hi,
I have only compile-tested this, so I would appreciate if anyone
could do a basic runtime test on it. But (famous last words) it
seems simple enough that I'm confident it's correct. oh boy. :)
thanks,
John Hubbard
