[PATCH v1 02/10] cpufreq: Consolidate some code in cpufreq_online()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Fri Mar 28 2025 - 17:14:02 EST


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

Notice that the policy->cpu update in cpufreq_policy_alloc() can be
moved to cpufreq_online() and then it can be carried out under the
policy rwsem, along with the clearing of policy->governor (unnecessary
in the "new policy" code branch, but also not harmful). If this is
done, the bottom parts of the "if (policy)" branches become identical
and they can be collapsed and moved below the conditional.

Modify the code accordingly which makes it somewhat easier to follow.

No intentional functional impact.
