Subject: [PATCH v1] cpuidle: Fail cpuidle device registration if there is one already
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2025 23:19:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3374815.aeNJFYEL58@rafael.j.wysocki> (raw)

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Refuse to register a cpuidle device if the given CPU has a cpuidle
device already and print a message regarding it.

Without this, an attempt to register a new cpuidle device without
unregistering the existing one leads to the removal of the existing
cpuidle device without removing its sysfs interface.
