[PATCH v1 1/4] ACPI: processor: Reorder acpi_processor_driver_init()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Fri Mar 03 2023 - 14:24:28 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

The cpufreq policy notifier in the ACPI processor driver may as
well be registered before the driver itself, which causes
acpi_processor_cpufreq_init to be true (unless the notifier
registration fails, which is unlikely at that point) when the
ACPI CPU thermal cooling devices are registered, so the
processor_get_max_state() result does not change while
acpi_processor_driver_init() is running.

Change the ordering in acpi_processor_driver_init() accordingly
to prevent the max_state value from remaining 0 permanently for all
ACPI CPU cooling devices.

Fixes: a365105c685c("thermal: sysfs: Reuse cdev->max_state")
