Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: remove redundant sprintf
Date: Wed, 4 May 2011 08:38:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110504153856.GA30309@outflux.net> (raw)

Since format string handling is part of request_module, there is no
need to construct the module name. As such, drop the redundant sprintf
and heap usage.
