The exact locking case in CPUfreq drivers causing a splat is described
in the patch. Details were already included, that's why term "more
details" was used.
This is not exactly taking us closer to a fix, so I'd rather like to

I added Oleg as CC to catch his attention to re-evaluate based on the
previous discussion in this thread.
Regards, Joonas
