The last paragraph is unclear.
Is it supposed to mean that the change will cause cpufreq_driver->stop_cpu() and ->exit() to be called under policy->rwsem sometimes?
Yeah, reworded it a bit ..
Also note that, after this patch cpufreq_driver->stop_cpu() and ->exit() will get called while policy->rwsem is held, which wasn't the case earlier. That shouldn't have any side effects though.
