If the policy limits are updated via cpufreq_update_policy() and subsequently via sysfs, the limits stored in user_policy may be set incorrectly. For example, if both min and max are set via sysfs to the maximum available frequency, user_policy.min and user_policy.max will also be the maximum. If a policy notifier triggered by cpufreq_update_policy() lowers both the min and the max at this point, that change is not reflected by the user_policy limits, so if the max is updated again via sysfs to the same lower value, then user_policy.max will be lower than user_policy.min which shouldn't happen. In particular, if one of the policy CPUs is then taken offline and back online, cpufreq_set_policy() will fail for it due to a failing limits check. To prevent that from happening, initialize the min and max fields of the new_policy object to the ones stored in user_policy that were previously set via sysfs.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
