[PATCH][[e-mail]: Re: 2.5.39-bk crashes here when P4 clock modulation enabled]

[Dominik Brodowski]

Hi Linus, Alan,

In two drivers a wrong size of memory was allocated for cpufreq_driver: as
it must include NR_CPUS times a struct cpufreq_policy (and not struct
cpufreq_freqs). Thanks to Petr Vandrovec for this patch.

	Dominik
