While debugging a cpufreq-related hardware failure on a system I saw the
following lockdep warning:
=========================

cpufreq: __cpufreq_add_dev: ->get() failed
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module pcc-cpufreq.ko: No such device
The warning occurs in the __cpufreq_add_dev() code which does
down_write(&policy->rwsem);
...
if (cpufreq_driver->get && !cpufreq_driver->setpolicy) {
policy->cur = cpufreq_driver->get(policy->cpu);
if (!policy->cur) {
pr_err("%s: ->get() failed\n", __func__);
goto err_get_freq;
}
If cpufreq_driver->get(policy->cpu) returns an error we execute the
code at err_get_freq, which does not up the policy->rwsem. This causes
the lockdep warning.
Trivial patch to up the policy->rwsem in the error path.
After the patch has been applied, and an error occurs in the
cpufreq_driver->get(policy->cpu) call we will now see
cpufreq: __cpufreq_add_dev: ->get() failed
cpufreq: __cpufreq_add_dev: ->get() failed
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'pcc_cpufreq': No such device
