Revision 6941051d3028963c3b0b3fcdd0815f2b51b957bb authored by Sudeep Holla on 18 October 2019, 10:58:15 UTC, committed by Rafael J. Wysocki on 22 October 2019, 16:07:30 UTC 
cpufreq: Cancel policy update work scheduled before freeing
 
Scheduled policy update work may end up racing with the freeing of the
policy and unregistering the driver.

One possible race is as below, where the cpufreq_driver is unregistered,
but the scheduled work gets executed at later stage when, cpufreq_driver
is NULL (i.e. after freeing the policy and driver).

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000001c
