cpufreq_thermal_reduction_pctg[cpu] must never be:
CPUFREQ_THERMAL_MIN_STEP 0
or the frequency is set to zero?
This looks a bit confusing, why not define:
#define CPUFREQ_THERMAL_MIN_STEP 1
and then remove the:
CPUFREQ_THERMAL_MIN_STEP + 1
to:
+ if (cpufreq_thermal_reduction_pctg[cpu] >
+ (CPUFREQ_THERMAL_MIN_STEP))
+ cpufreq_thermal_reduction_pctg[cpu]--;
