[PATCH V7 5/6] cpufreq: Restart governor as soon as possible

From: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org>
Date: 2015-06-08 12:56:11
Subsystem: cpu frequency scaling framework, the rest · Maintainers: "Rafael J. Wysocki", Viresh Kumar, Linus Torvalds

On cpu hot-unplug, we don't need to wait for POST_DEAD notification to
restart the governor if the policy has atleast one online cpu left. We
can restart the governor right from the DOWN_PREPARE notification
instead.

[ Something similar attempted by Saravana earlier ]
