Sorry, couldn't understand most of your reply :)
Though let me try to explain the problem I was trying to show you..
cpufreq-notifier-callback
-> init_cpu_capacity_callback()
-> free raw capacity
-> queue_work() to unregister the notifier
-> return
->init_cpu_capacity_callback() called again before work was processed.
-> If we don't check raw_capacity, we may end up using
NULL pointer, as the notifier isn't unregistered yet.
