I was talking about the same race which I believed to exist in 2/10 as
well.. But there is no such race it seems as we discussed yesterday.
So, only the first point is what the enable field was required for.

And because of that getting NAK'd, here is the new version:

Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: conservative: remove 'enable' field

Conservative governor has its own 'enable' field to check if
conservative governor is used for a CPU or not

This can be checked by policy->governor with 'cpufreq_gov_conservative'
and so this field can be dropped.

Because its not guaranteed that dbs_info->cdbs.ccdbs will a valid
pointer for all CPUs (will be NULL for CPUs that don't use
ondemand/conservative governors), we can't use it anymore. Lets get
policy with cpufreq_cpu_get() instead.
