Wouldn't it make more sense just to pass in "policy"?

Then have here:

		__entry->min_freq = policy->min;
		__entry->max_freq = policy->max;
		__entry->puc_id = policy->cpu;

It would also make the footprint of the tracepoint in the code smaller
as it would pass fewer parameters to the trace event.
