cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix unsafe HWP MSR access
This is a requirement that MSR MSR_PM_ENABLE must be set to 0x01 before reading MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES on a given CPU. If cpufreq init() is scheduled on a CPU which is not same as policy->cpu or migrates to a different CPU before calling msr read for MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES, it is possible that MSR_PM_ENABLE was not to set to 0x01 on that CPU. This will cause GP fault. So like other places in this path rdmsrl_on_cpu should be used instead of rdmsrl. Moreover the scope of MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES is on per thread basis, so it should be read from the same CPU, for which MSR MSR_HWP_REQUEST is getting set. dmesg dump or warning: [ 22.014488] WARNING: CPU: 139 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/extable.c:50 ex_handler_rdmsr_unsafe+0x68/0x70 [ 22.014492] unchecked MSR access error: RDMSR from 0x771 [ 22.014493] Modules linked in: [ 22.014507] CPU: 139 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.7.5+ #1 ... ...
