X-Git-Tag: v3.12-rc1~31920^2~20^2~49 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0916bd3ebb7cefdd0f432e8491abe24f4b5a101e;p=kernel%2Fkernel-generic.git [PATCH] Correct bound checking from the value returned from _PPC method. processor_perflib.c::acpi_processor_ppc_notifier() check if the value returned by the processor's _PPC method is 0 and return failed if so. This is wrong since 0 indicate that the bios think the processor can go to the highest frequency. This patch for example fix the HP NX 6125 to allow its highest frequency to be available.
