    [CPUFREQ] speedstep-centrino: skip extract_clock logic for acpi based centrino · f914be79
    Venkatesh Pallipadi authored
    speedstep_centrino.c:extract_clock() assumes the bus speed of 100MHz, which is
    not true with latest laptops. Due to this assumption and due to the encoded
    frequency check during initialization, speedstep-centrino driver fails even
    on systems that has proper ACPI information to do the P-state transition.
    
    The change below moves the centrino-speedstep detection to be used only
    when table based P-state transition is done. For ACPI based P-state
    transition, we skip the centrino_cpu identification, and as a result we
    don't use the bus speed assumption in extract_clock. This change makes
    speedstep-centrino work on Pentium-M based systems, which have more than 100MHz
    bus speed.
