Subject: [PATCH] acpi: cppc: Prevent cpc_desc_ptr points to the invalid data
Date: Wed, 25 May 2016 12:09:23 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464203363-20599-1-git-send-email-hotran@apm.com> (raw)

When CPPC fails to request PCC channel, the CPC data is freed
and cpc_desc_ptr points to the invalid data. This change prevents
this issue by moving cpc_desc_ptr assignment after PCC channel
request.
