2.6.0-test1: (ACPI) Oops when changing CPU frequency

[Jurgen Kramer]

Hi,

I've just tried 2.6.0-test1 on my laptop. I get ACPI oopses when I
change the CPU frequency through the ACPI proc interface:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
00000240
 printing eip:

*pde = 00000000
