I wasn't actually able to reproduce the bug myself, but I guess it is pretty obvious that I shouldn't have called cpufreq_unregister_notifier with a spinlock held. I haven't been doing this long enough to know exactly which kernel this patch should be against, so let me know if this ins't good. Thanks! This patch (for the 2.6.21.3 kernel plus previously sent cpufreq notifier patch) fixes a bug caused by calling cpufreq_unregister_notifier (which can sleep) while holding a spinlock.
