Okay. I will replace the earlier fixup with following:

          This enables the Generic CPUfreq driver for ARM big.LITTLE platform.
          This gets frequency tables from DT.

        if (atomic_inc_return(&cluster_usage[cluster]) != 1)


For more clarity i will resend this patch now will all updates.
