cpufreq: Revert incorrect commit 5800043
Commit 5800043 (cpufreq: convert cpufreq_driver to using RCU) causes the following call trace to be spit on boot: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /scratch/rafael/work/linux-pm/mm/slab.c:3179 in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 292, name: systemd-udevd 2 locks held by systemd-udevd/292: #0: (subsys mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8146851a>] subsys_interface_register+0x4a/0xe0 #1: (rcu_read_lock){.+.+.+}, at: [<ffffffff81538210>] cpufreq_add_dev_interface+0x60/0x5e0 Pid: 292, comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 3.9.0-rc8+ #323 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81072c90>] __might_sleep+0x140/0x1f0 [<ffffffff811581c2>] kmem_cache_alloc+0x42/0x2b0 [<ffffffff811e7179>] sysfs_new_dirent+0x59/0x130 [<ffffffff811e63cb>] sysfs_add_file_mode+0x6b/0x110 [<ffffffff81538210>] ? cpufreq_add_dev_interface+0x60/0x5e0 [<ffffffff810a3254>] ? __lock_is_held+0x54/0x80 [<ffffffff811e647d>] sysfs_add_file+0xd/0x10 [<ffffffff811e6541>] sysfs_create_file+0x21/0x30 [<ffffffff81538280>] cpufreq_add_dev_interface+0xd0/0x5e0 [<ffffffff81538210>] ? cpufreq_add_dev_interface+0x60/0x5e0 [<ffffffffa000337f>] ? acpi_processor_get_platform_limit+0x32/0xbb [processor] [<ffffffffa022f540>] ? do_drv_write+0x70/0x70 [acpi_cpufreq] [<ffffffff810a3254>] ? __lock_is_held+0x54/0x80 [<ffffffff8106c97e>] ? up_read+0x1e/0x40 [<ffffffff8106e632>] ? __blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x72/0xc0 [<ffffffff81538dbd>] cpufreq_add_dev+0x62d/0xae0 [<ffffffff815389b8>] ? cpufreq_add_dev+0x228/0xae0 [<ffffffff81468569>] subsys_interface_register+0x99/0xe0 [<ffffffffa014d000>] ? 0xffffffffa014cfff [<ffffffff81535d5d>] cpufreq_register_driver+0x9d/0x200 [<ffffffffa014d000>] ? 0xffffffffa014cfff [<ffffffffa014d0e9>] acpi_cpufreq_init+0xe9/0x1000 [acpi_cpufreq] [<ffffffff810002fa>] do_one_initcall+0x11a/0x170 [<ffffffff810b4b87>] load_module+0x1cf7/0x2920 [<ffffffff81322580>] ? ddebug_proc_open+0xb0/0xb0 [<ffffffff816baee0>] ? retint_restore_args+0xe/0xe [<ffffffff810b5887>] sys_init_module+0xd7/0x120 [<ffffffff816bb6d2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b which is quite obvious, because that commit put (multiple instances of) sysfs_create_file() under rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock(), although sysfs_create_file() may cause memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL and that may sleep, which is not permitted in RCU read critical section. Revert the buggy commit altogether along with some changes on top of it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
