You weren't required to do this unnecessary change.

This isn't required. The CPU is guaranteed to be online here.

Is it really possible here ? I meant you must have already checked
this at cpufreq-init level already. Else mark it unlikely at least.

What exactly can fail here ? get_cpu_ndiv() can't fail. Do we really
need this check ? What about WARN_ON_ONCE() ?

where does this 115200 comes from ? Strange that it matches tty's baud
rate :)

This is 115 MHz, right ? Isn't that too big of a delta ?
