Policy locking was added to cpufreq_policy_is_good_for_eas() by commit4854649b1f("cpufreq/sched: Move cpufreq-specific EAS checks to cpufreq") to address a theoretical race condition, but it turned out to introduce a circular locking dependency between the policy rwsem and sched_domains_mutex via cpuset_mutex. This leads to a board lockup on OdroidN2 that is based on the ARM64 Amlogic Meson SoC. Drop the policy locking from cpufreq_policy_is_good_for_eas() to address this issue.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
