Also, were these changes tested on AMD CPUs? It would seem to me
that the cpufreq_cpu_policy array would remain uninitialized here, and
hence the first access in the powernow code would dereference a NULL
pointer.
Likewise the calls to cpufreq_{add,del}_cpu() from the CPU hot(un)plug
paths seem to consider the Intel case only (as the functions themselves
are Intel specific).
