<content type='text'>
commit 36527b9d882362567ceb4eea8666813280f30e6f upstream.

The freq Qos request would be removed repeatedly if the cpufreq policy
relates to more than one CPU. Then, it would cause the "called for unknown
object" warning.

Remove the freq Qos request for each CPU relates to the cpufreq policy,
instead of removing repeatedly for the last CPU of it.

The _PPC change notifications from the platform firmware are per-CPU,
so acpi_processor_ppc_init() needs to add a frequency QoS request
for each CPU covered by a cpufreq policy to take all of them into
account.

Even though ACPI thermal control of CPUs sets frequency limits
per processor package, it also needs a frequency QoS request for each
CPU in a cpufreq policy in case some of them are taken offline and
the frequency limit needs to be set through the remaining online
ones (this is slightly excessive, because all CPUs covered by one
cpufreq policy will set the same frequency limit through their QoS
requests, but it is not incorrect).

Modify the code in accordance with the above observations.

<title>cpufreq: Use per-policy frequency QoS</title>

<content type='text'>
Replace the CPU device PM QoS used for the management of min and max
frequency constraints in cpufreq (and its users) with per-policy
frequency QoS to avoid problems with cpufreq policies covering
more then one CPU.

Namely, a cpufreq driver is registered with the subsys interface
which calls cpufreq_add_dev() for each CPU, starting from CPU0, so
currently the PM QoS notifiers are added to the first CPU in the
policy (i.e. CPU0 in the majority of cases).

In turn, when the cpufreq driver is unregistered, the subsys interface
doing that calls cpufreq_remove_dev() for each CPU, starting from CPU0,
and the PM QoS notifiers are only removed when cpufreq_remove_dev() is
called for the last CPU in the policy, say CPUx, which as a rule is
not CPU0 if the policy covers more than one CPU.  Then, the PM QoS
notifiers cannot be removed, because CPUx does not have them, and
they are still there in the device PM QoS notifiers list of CPU0,
which prevents new PM QoS notifiers from being registered for CPU0
on the next attempt to register the cpufreq driver.

The same issue occurs when the first CPU in the policy goes offline
before unregistering the driver.

After this change it does not matter which CPU is the policy CPU at
the driver registration time and whether or not it is online all the
time, because the frequency QoS is per policy and not per CPU.

<title>ACPI: processor: Avoid NULL pointer dereferences at init time</title>

If there are neither processor objects nor processor device objects
in the ACPI tables, the per-CPU processors table will not be
initialized and attempting to dereference pointers from there will
cause the kernel to crash.  This happens in acpi_processor_ppc_init()
and acpi_thermal_cpufreq_init() after commit d15ce412737a ("ACPI:
cpufreq: Switch to QoS requests instead of cpufreq notifier")
which didn't add the requisite NULL pointer checks in there.

Add the NULL pointer checks to acpi_processor_ppc_init() and
acpi_thermal_cpufreq_init(), and to the corresponding "exit"
routines.

While at it, drop redundant return instructions from
acpi_processor_ppc_init() and acpi_thermal_cpufreq_init().

Correct "coolign" to "cooling" and "*_ptg" to "*_pctg" as intended.

Replace direct inclusions of &lt;acpi/acpi.h&gt;, &lt;acpi/acpi_bus.h&gt; and
&lt;acpi/acpi_drivers.h&gt;, which are incorrect, with &lt;linux/acpi.h&gt;
inclusions and remove some inclusions of those files that aren't
necessary.

First of all, &lt;acpi/acpi.h&gt;, &lt;acpi/acpi_bus.h&gt; and &lt;acpi/acpi_drivers.h&gt;
should not be included directly from any files that are built for
CONFIG_ACPI unset, because that generally leads to build warnings about
undefined symbols in !CONFIG_ACPI builds.  For CONFIG_ACPI set,
&lt;linux/acpi.h&gt; includes those files and for CONFIG_ACPI unset it
provides stub ACPI symbols to be used in that case.

Second, there are ordering dependencies between those files that always
have to be met.  Namely, it is required that &lt;acpi/acpi_bus.h&gt; be included
prior to &lt;acpi/acpi_drivers.h&gt; so that the acpi_pci_root declarations the
latter depends on are always there.  And &lt;acpi/acpi.h&gt; which provides
basic ACPICA type declarations should always be included prior to any other
ACPI headers in CONFIG_ACPI builds.  That also is taken care of including
&lt;linux/acpi.h&gt; as appropriate.
