The fix looks correct to me.
To my eyes what happens is that cpufreq_driver->init() in __cpufreq_add_dev() fails and then cpufreq_cpu_data_fallback is cleared. cpufreq_cpu_data is not set for the CPU, so cpufreq_cpu_data_fallback is NULL all the time. Then, during resume, __cpufreq_add_dev() is called again and it calls cpufreq_policy_restore(), because cpufreq_suspended is set. You know the rest. :-)
I'm queuing this up for the next PM pull request (most likely next week for -rc5).

To me, that should be:
Fixes: 8414809c6a1e (cpufreq: Preserve policy structure across suspend/resume)
and therefore should go into 3.12+.
I'll add the appropriate tags.
