I'm not sure we need to or should refer to kobject count (maybe just reference count instead?) and cpufreq_rwsem in the documentation. Those are implementation specific details and IMHO, shouldn't be in the documentation. I think it would be better to just explain the impact (which you already do) -- policy will never be freed and it will also prevent the cpufreq driver from getting unregistered.
Just my 2 cents.
I wanted to be damn explicit here so that people understand what's going on. Few days back I had some real hard time to explain this concept to an kernel engineer and many more may follow.
