[PATCH 3/9] cpufreq: cpufreq-cpu0: No need to check cpu number in init()

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Mon Apr 01 2013 - 08:58:32 EST


It is not possible for init() to be called for any cpu other than cpu0. During
bootup whatever cpu is used to boot system will be assigned as cpu0. And later
on policy->cpu can only change if we hotunplug all cpus first and then hotplug
them back in different order, which isn't possible (system requires atleast one
cpu to be up always :)).

Though I can see one situation where policy->cpu can be different then zero.
- Hot-unplug cpu 0.
- rmmod cpufreq-cpu0 module
- insmod it back
- hotplug cpu 0 again.

Here, policy->cpu would be different. But the driver doesn't have any dependency
on cpu0 as such. We don't mind which cpu of a system is policy->cpu and so this
check is just not required.

Remove it.
