From 7b1b7961170e4fcad488755e5ffaaaf9bd527e8f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2025 13:22:20 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cpuidle: Fail cpuidle device registration if there is one already 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.
