CPUFreq: Fixes & Cleanups for 3.12

Hi Rafael,

This is V2 of the patch series which was posted here earlier:

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1759514

This patchset tries to fix & cleanup many existing cpufreq core issues. First four patches tries to cleanup basic problems in cpufreq core. Its first patch was earlier sent separately but now is part of this series.

Fifth patch was also sent earlier as reply to your patches and was reviewed by Srivatsa. Sixth patch was picked from Lukasz's patchset on introducing software "boost" feature in core. It will be used by this patchset.

And 7-10 are are the most significant part of this set. They try to make many things simple and robust.

Last patch in the series is new and wasn't part of V1.

This is rebased of your bleeding-edge branch + two patches from you:
18a6b03 cpufreq: Avoid double kobject_put() for the same kobject in error code path d0cde63 cpufreq: Do not hold driver module references for additional policy CPUs abe513f Merge branch 'acpi-sleep-next' into linux-next

They are also pushed in my cpufreq-next branch.

They are tested fairly well on ARM Vexpress TC2 board (big LITTLE).

Lukasz Majewski (1):
cpufreq: Store cpufreq policies in a list

Viresh Kumar (10):
cpufreq: Cleanup header files included in core
cpufreq: Re-arrange declarations in cpufreq.h
cpufreq: Give consistent names for struct cpufreq_policy *
cpufreq: Use sizeof(*ptr) form for finding size of a struct
cpufreq: Pass policy to cpufreq_add_policy_cpu()
cpufreq: Use cpufreq_policy_list for iterating over policies
cpufreq: Fix broken usage of governor->owner's refcount
cpufreq: Don't use cpufreq_driver->owner's refcount to protect
critical sections
cpufreq: Remove struct cpufreq_driver's owner field
cpufreq: improve error checking on return values of
__cpufreq_governor()
