From: Todd Poynor <[email protected]> Starting the governor, or restarting on a hotplugged-in CPU, can race with the timer start in idle, triggering a BUG on timer already pending. Start the timer before setting the enable flag, and use enable_sem to protect the sequence (and ensure correct order of the update to the enable flag). Delete any existing timer for safety.
