Cpufreq not working in 2.6.18-rc6

Hello

Cpufreq is not working for me in 2.6.18-rc6 (as it worked flawlessly
in 2.6.17.7 and earlier versions)

I cannot insmod powernow-k7, it only shows (in dmesg):

powernow: PowerNOW! Technology present. Can scale: frequency and voltage.

But then insmod fails with EBUSY (or better: init_module(0x804b018,
11352, "")       = -1 EBUSY (Device or resource busy))

I traced this to cpufreq_register_driver returning -0x16

I disabled APM for this kernel, previous kernel version had APM
enabled (AFAIK, shouldn't be relevant; ACPI is enabled)

I tried to enable APM only to discover it does not work to compile APM
as a module :/ (complains about default_idle and machine_real_restart
being "unknown symbols")

Will try with builtin APM later

Relevant config info is below:
