This caused kernel to access incorrect address and crash. The following patch series fixes the cpuidle-powernv driver and also adds additional checks in cpuidle_add_sysfs() This patch set is against v4.11-rc3. Changed from v1: Updated commit message and comments. Signed-off-by: Vaidyanathan Srinivasan
