Subject: [PATCH 4.14 66/67] Revert "cpufreq: Fix governor module removal race"
4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>
This reverts commit 0049457bfde661cf47410eaacad65845c9a2bb45 which was
commit a8b149d32b663c1a4105273295184b78f53d33cf upstream.
The backport was not correct, so just drop it entirely.
