[PATCH 1/2] topology: Check for missing CPU devices
From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Jan 08 2012 - 15:48:46 EST
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.
