commit2a3eb51e30upstream. If cppc_cpufreq.ko is deleted at the same time that tuned-adm is changing profiles, there is a small chance that a race can occur between cpufreq_dbs_governor_exit() and cpufreq_dbs_governor_limits() resulting in a system failure when the latter tries to use policy->governor_data that has been freed by the former. This patch uses gov_dbs_data_mutex to synchronize access.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
