In __cpufreq_cooling_register() we allocate the arrays for time_in_idle
and time_in_idle_timestamp to be as big as the number of cpus in this
cpufreq device.  However, in get_load() we access this array using the
cpu number as index, which can result in an out of bound access.

Index time_in_idle{,_timestamp} using the index in the cpufreq_device's
allowed_cpus mask, as we do for the load_cpu array in
cpufreq_get_requested_power()

If there are no more objections, can you pick this up?
Another gentle ping, can this be merged?

Eduardo, Rui,

This has been in the list for more than a month now.  It fixes an out
of bounds access.  It has been acked by Viresh (comaintainer of
cpu_cooling) and has been tested by Nicolas.  Can you guys merge it
please?

Cheers,
Javi
