From 9ab9b9d3fb9231cdcfda8e0fb3d9c24a2f95ed26 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Viresh Kumar Date: Thu, 26 May 2022 17:21:21 +0530 Subject: cpufreq: Drop unnecessary cpus locking from store() This change was introduced long back by commit 4f750c930822 ("cpufreq: Synchronize the cpufreq store_*() routines with CPU hotplug"). Since then, both cpufreq and hotplug core have been reworked and have much better locking in place. The race mentioned in commit 4f750c930822 isn't possible anymore. Drop the unnecessary locking.
