I haven't looked at this driver in detail, but I have tested it.
Instead of the line above, I needed:

return cpufreq_table_validate_and_show(policy, c->table);

Without this the framework thinks that the min and max frequencies are
zero, and then you get a warning about an invalid table. I also
removed "policy->freq_table = c->table", since validate_and_show does
this.
