Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86, powernow-k8: Fix exit path
Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2010 14:19:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1290604741-25151-2-git-send-email-bp@amd64.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101124131303.GA24892@aftab>
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de>
When Cool'n'Quiet is disabled in the BIOS we're missing _PSS
objects and powernow-k8 fails loading with a juicy firmware bug
message. However, on machines with boosting cpus, it forgets
to unreg from the cpu notifier chain leading to oops. See also
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=655215
Fix error path accordingly.
