The error messages are:

 /lkp/wfg/src/setup/cpufreq_governor: line 9: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
 /lkp/wfg/src/setup/cpufreq_governor: line 9: echo: write error: Device or resource busy

where the cpufreq_governor script is
 
        #!/bin/bash

        scaling_governor=$1
        [[ $scaling_governor ]] || exit 0

        for file in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
        do
                note "echo $scaling_governor > $file"
==>             echo $scaling_governor > $file
        done

Thanks,
Fengguang
