This can still be written more efficiently I believe:

But I don't really like the solution here. You are handling frozen for EXIT in
cpufreq-core and for INIT in governor. That doesn't look like the right
approach. There are out of tree governors too (I know we don't care about them
:)), and those also need to adapt with some policy made at cpufreq-core level.
I told you that I had another solution for this problem, pretty similar to
yours. It looked like this:

-------------------------------
But after the PM notifiers patch I even don't want this to go.. I will make sure
that that patch goes in, in one form or another :)
So, just wait for sometime before posting a new version :) (I know you did it
because Rafael suggested a change)..
