[PATCH 50/70] cpufreq: interactive: fix race on cpufreq TRANSITION notifier

From: BÃlint Czobor
Date: Tue Oct 27 2015 - 13:45:12 EST


From: Lianwei Wang <a22439@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

The cpufreq TRANSTION notifier callback does not check the
governor_enabled state on affected CPUS, which will case
kernel panic in update_load because the policy object maybe
NULL or invalid when governor_enabled is false.
