cpufreq: Remove cpufreq_governor_lock We used to drop policy->rwsem just before calling __cpufreq_governor() in some cases earlier and so it was possible that __cpufreq_governor() ran concurrently via separate threads for the same policy. In order to guarantee valid state transitions for governors, 'governor_enabled' was required to be protected using some locking and cpufreq_governor_lock was added for that. But now __cpufreq_governor() is always called under policy->rwsem, and 'governor_enabled' is protected against races even without cpufreq_governor_lock. Get rid of the extra lock now.
