  In the amd_pstate_adjust_perf(), there is one cpufreq_cpu_get() call to
increase increments the kobject reference count of policy and make it as
busy. Therefore, a corresponding call to cpufreq_cpu_put() is needed to
decrement the kobject reference count back, it will resolve the kernel
hang issue when unregistering the amd-pstate driver and register the
`amd_pstate_epp` driver instance.

Can you provide a Fixes tag, please?

Also, what's the difference between this and the previous version?

Sure, let me add the Fixes tag in v3

Just add the  "Tested-by: Wyes Karny <wyes.karny@amd.com>"  in v2.
