static int cpufreq_governor(struct cpufreq_policy *policy, unsigned int event)
{
	int ret;

	/* Don't start any governor operations if we are entering suspend */
	if (cpufreq_suspended)
		return 0;

        ...

}

Above already guarantees that we would start/stop governors. Why do we
need this change then ?
