The other patch on which you commented about unnecessary read
locks being taken:

[PATCH 181/228] cpufreq: move freq change notifications to cpufreq

That calls these notifiers, for all platforms except the ones that have
set CPUFREQ_ASYNC_NOTIFICATION, before and after calling
->target_index()..

And so functionally the code is supposed to be the same.. Unless I
have done some stupid mistake..
