NAK. This patch again doesn't make sense considering your issue.
Also jiffies should not be undated before changing the freq.
If the set_rate failed for some reason then you will have wrong
jiffies value.
I understand your issue now. The code for global lpj updation
should have been checking smp_on_up() instead of is_smp().
That one line change is enough. I will post a patch on
the same once I reach to office.
