[PATCH] power: opp: Fix rcu_dereference_check() without protection!

From: Santosh Shilimkar
Date: Tue Jun 14 2011 - 09:03:52 EST


With RCU debug options enabled, below warning is observed.

===================================================
[ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
---------------------------------------------------
drivers/base/power/opp.c:151 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
no locks held by swapper/1.
...

---------------------------------------------------

Fix the same by protecting it with rcu_read lock.
