[PATCH 1/2] topology: Check for missing CPU devices

From: Ben Hutchings <hidden>
Date: 2012-01-08 20:48:49
Also in: linux-m68k, lkml
Subsystem: driver core, kobjects, debugfs and sysfs, the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, "Rafael J. Wysocki", Danilo Krummrich, Linus Torvalds

Commit ccbc60d3e19a1b6ae66ca0d89b3da02dde62088b ('topology: Provide
CPU topology in sysfs in !SMP configurations') causes a crash at boot
on a several architectures.  The topology sysfs code assumes that
there is a CPU device for each online CPU whereas some architectures
that do not support SMP or cpufreq do not register any CPU devices.
Check for this before trying to use a device.
