[PATCH] cpufreq: cppc: Mark frequency invariance broken

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Thu Jun 10 2021 - 03:59:43 EST


There are few races in the frequency invariance support for CPPC driver,
namely the driver doesn't stop the kthread_work and irq_work on policy
exit during suspend/resume or CPU hotplug.

A proper fix won't be possible for the 5.13-rc, as it requires a lot of
changes. Instead of reverting the patch, mark this feature BROKEN for
now.

Rafael, please apply this for v5.13-rc if it looks fine to you.
