cpufreq: Call __cpufreq_governor() with policy->rwsem held

The cpufreq core code is not consistent with respect to invoking
__cpufreq_governor() under policy->rwsem.

Changing all code to always hold policy->rwsem around
__cpufreq_governor() invocations will allow us to remove
cpufreq_governor_lock that is used today because we can't
guarantee that __cpufreq_governor() isn't executed twice in
parallel for the same policy.

We should also ensure that policy->rwsem is held across governor
state changes.

For example, while adding a CPU to the policy in the CPU online path,
we need to stop the governor, change policy->cpus, start the governor
and then refresh its limits. The complete sequence must be guaranteed
to complete without interruptions by concurrent governor state
updates.  That can be achieved by holding policy->rwsem around those
sequences of operations.

Also note that after this patch cpufreq_driver->stop_cpu() and
->exit() will get called under policy->rwsem which wasn't the case
earlier. That shouldn't have any side effects, though.
