cpufreq: fix null object access on Transmeta CPU
If cpu specific cpufreq driver(i.e. longrun) has "setpolicy" function, governor object isn't set into cpufreq_policy object at "__cpufreq_set_policy" function in driver/cpufreq/cpufreq.c . This causes a null object access at "store_scaling_setspeed" and "show_scaling_setspeed" function in driver/cpufreq/cpufreq.c when reading or writing through /sys interface (ex. cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed) Addresses: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10654 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=443354 Signed-off-by: CHIKAMA Masaki <masaki.chikama@gmail.com> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Cc: Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@redhat.com> Acked-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
