[PATCH Resend] cpufreq: remove sysfs files for CPU which failed to come back after resume

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Fri Dec 20 2013 - 10:56:17 EST


There are cases where cpufreq_add_dev() may fail for some CPUs during resume.
With the current code we will still have sysfs cpufreq files for such CPUs, and
struct cpufreq_policy would be already freed for them. Hence any operation on
those sysfs files would result in kernel warnings.

To fix this, lets remove those sysfs files or put the associated kobject in case
of such errors. Also, to make it simple lets remove the sysfs links from all the
CPUs (except policy->cpu) during suspend as that operation wouldn't result with a
loss of sysfs file permissions. And so we will create those links during resume
as well.
