    Subject[PATCH 03/11] cpufreq: fix kobject reference count handling
    Date
    From: Balaji Rao <balajirrao@gmail.com>

    The cpufreq core should not take an extra kobject reference count for no
    reason, and then refuse to release it. This has been reported as
    keeping machines from properly powering down all the way.
