Both amd_pstate_power_supply_notifier() and\namd_pstate_profile_set() acquire a policy via cpufreq_cpu_get() and then\npass that pointer to amd_pstate_get_balanced_epp() and\namd_pstate_set_epp(), which dereference it unconditionally.  A racing\nCPU hotplug or driver teardown can therefore lead to a NULL pointer\ndereference on either of these dynamic EPP paths.\n\nThe third cpufreq_cpu_get() caller in this file, amd_pstate_verify(),\nalready handles the NULL case.  Bring the two new callers in line with\nthat pattern: return NOTIFY_OK from the power-supply notifier (matching\nthe other \"nothing to do\" exits) and -ENODEV from amd_pstate_profile_set()\n(the usual cpufreq error for a missing CPU policy).\n\nFound by code inspection; not tested on hardware."
