double space ^^

superfluous whitespace there.

static __always_inline
unsigned long arch_scale_freq_ref_policy(struct cpufreq_policy *policy)
{
#ifdef arch_scale_freq_ref
return arch_scale_freq_ref(policy->cpu);
#endif

if (arch_scale_freq_invariant())
return policy->cpuinfo.max_freq;

return policy->cur;
}

Would have the lot in a single function and possibly easier to read?

Leave the variable below per the inverse christmas thing.
