[CPUFREQ] fix a lockdep warning
There is no need to do sysfs_remove_link() or kobject_put() etc. when policy_rwsem_write is held, move them after releasing the lock. This fixes the lockdep warning: halt/4071 is trying to acquire lock: (s_active){++++.+}, at: [<c0000000001ef868>] .sysfs_addrm_finish+0x58/0xc0 but task is already holding lock: (&per_cpu(cpu_policy_rwsem, cpu)){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0000000004cd6ac>] .lock_policy_rwsem_write+0x84/0xf4 Reported-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: WANG Cong <amwang@redhat.com> Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Cc: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
