The top-most commit in that branch is

commit 73bf0fc2b03d1f4fdada0ec430dc20bfb089cfd5
Author: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org>
Date:   Tue Feb 5 22:21:14 2013 +0100

    cpufreq: Don't remove sysfs link for policy->cpu

because that's when the locking problems were first reported and I stopped
putting new commits into that branch.  And since the locking problems were
introduced by b8eed8a "cpufreq: Simplify __cpufreq_remove_dev()" I want them
to be fixed on top of pm-cpufreq rather than on top of more new stuff that
very well may introduce *more* problems.

So as I said, please rework the fixes on top of linux-pm.git/pm-cpufreq.

Moreover, I'd very much prefer it if you fixed the problems introduced by
b8eed8a "cpufreq: Simplify __cpufreq_remove_dev()" separately and *then* any
other locking problems you're seeing in the code, although people are not
reporting them.

You seem to have a clear picture of how the code should work now, so that
won't be a big trouble I guess.

Thanks,
Rafael
