Thanks for pointing this out.

Sounds good, I'll add a note.

Indeed, apparently GPUs are the primary devfreq device used for cooling,
and unfortunately most GPU drivers are not in upstream.

I think we should be good here if we jump to 'free_tables' if
_add_request() fails, as requested by Chanwoo. Then _remove_request() is
only called when _add_request() was successful.
