Replace the manual cpufreq_cpu_put() with __free(put_cpufreq_policy)
annotation for policy references. This reduces the risk of reference
counting mistakes and aligns the code with the latest kernel style.

No functional change intended.

If you want to make this change, please also change the return type of
the function to bool.
Thanks for pointing this out.

This isn't correct AFAICS at least formally because the scope of the
variable is the whole function, so it won't get out of scope at the
point where you want cpufreq_cpu_put() to be called.

The policy variable should be defined in the block following the "for"
loop (and actually all of the local variables except for "i" can be
defined there).


Sorry for the mistake — I did this correctly in other places, but forgot here.

Or better still, please move that block to a separate function
containing all of the requisite local variable definitions and call
that function for each online CPU.


 In fact, I have realized that we cannot always use __free for cleanup directly.

The issue is that the release only happens at the end of the variable’s lifetime, while in some cases we want to drop the reference immediately after use.

To address this, I’m considering introducing a helper macro in include/linux/cpufreq.h that would make this more explicit and allow safe cleanup at the right point.


Before moving forward, I’d like to hear your opinion on this approach:

#define WITH_CPUFREQ_POLICY(cpu) \
for(struct cpufreq_policy *policy __free(put_cpufreq_policy) = \
    cpufreq_cpu_get(cpu);;)


Then we can use it for all code :

        WITH_CPUFREQ_POLICY(cpu) {
                        if(!policy)
                                return XXX; // error handing
                        
                        //code use policy here
