Sorry for the late reply, this email didn't get filtered into the right 
folder.

I think the design of dpm_suspend_start() and dpm_resume_end() generally 
works fine because we seem to keep track of what devices have been 
suspended so far (in the dpm_suspended_list) and call resume only of 
those. So, why isn't the right fix to have cpufreq get put into that 
list? Instead of just always call it on the resume path even if it 
wasn't suspended? That seems to be the real issue.

So, we should either have dpm_suspend/resume() have a flag to keep track 
of if cpufreq_suspend/resume() was called and make sure they are called 
in proper pairs. Or have cpufreq register in a way that gets it put in 
the suspend/resume list.

I'd still like to NACK this change.
