adc97d6a73 cpufreq: Drop the owner field from struct cpufreq_driver
We don't need to set .owner = THIS_MODULE any more in cpufreq drivers
as this field isn't used any more by the cpufreq core.

This patch removes it and updates all dependent drivers accordingly.

f77f146599 cpufreq: pcc: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases
PRECHANGE and POSTCHANGE notifiers must be called in groups, i.e
either both should be called or both shouldn't be.

In case we have started PRECHANGE notifier and found an error, we
must call POSTCHANGE notifier with freqs.new = freqs.old to guarantee
that the sequence of calling notifiers is complete.

This patch fixes it.

b43a7ffbf3 cpufreq: Notify all policy->cpus in cpufreq_notify_transition()
policy->cpus contains all online cpus that have single shared clock line. And
their frequencies are always updated together.

Many SMP system's cpufreq drivers take care of this in individual drivers but
the best place for this code is in cpufreq core.

This patch modifies cpufreq_notify_transition() to notify frequency change for
all cpus in policy->cpus and hence updates all users of this API.

d06a8a4fe7 drivers/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c: fix error return code
Convert a 0 error return code to a negative one, as returned elsewhere in the
function.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
identifier ret;
expression e,e1,e2,e3,e4,x;
@@

(
if (\(ret != 0\|ret < 0\) || ...) { ... return ...; }
|
ret = 0
)
... when != ret = e1
*x = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|devm_kzalloc\|ioremap\|ioremap_nocache\|devm_ioremap\|devm_ioremap_nocache\)(...);
... when != x = e2
    when != ret = e3
*if (x == NULL || ...)
{
  ... when != ret = e4
*  return ret;
}
// </smpl>

e71f5cc402 drivers/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c: avoid NULL pointer dereference
per_cpu(processors, n) can be NULL, resulting in:

  Loading CPUFreq modules[  437.661360] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
  IP: [<ffffffffa0434314>] pcc_cpufreq_cpu_init+0x74/0x220 [pcc_cpufreq]

It's better to avoid the oops by failing the driver, and allowing the
system to boot.
