[PATCH] cpufreq: fix pending powernow timer stuck condition

Browse Source 
AMD recently discovered that on some hardware, there is a race condition
possible when a C-state change request goes onto the bus at the same
time as a P-state change request.

Both requests happen, but the southbridge hardware only acknowledges the
C-state change.  The PowerNow! driver is then stuck in a loop, waiting
for the P-state change acknowledgement.  The driver eventually times
out, but can no longer perform P-state changes.

It turns out the solution is to resend the P-state change, which the
southbridge will acknowledge normally.

Thanks to Johannes Winkelmann for reporting this and testing the fix.
