@Rafael: This driver needs to do this *ugly* notifier hack, just because we
aren't doing kobject_add() for policy->kobj before ->init(). And we did that
because, we wanted to create the policyX structure with the first CPU in
policy->related_cpus mask and related_cpus mask isn't available until we call
->init()..

Should we do something in core to make this easier for this driver?
