cpufreq: serialize calls to __cpufreq_governor()

We can't take a big lock around __cpufreq_governor() as this causes
recursive locking for some cases. But calls to this routine must be
serialized for every policy. Otherwise we can see some unpredictable
events.

For example, consider following scenario:

__cpufreq_remove_dev()
 __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP);
   policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP);
    cpufreq_governor_dbs()
     case CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP:
      mutex_destroy(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex)
      cpu_cdbs->cur_policy = NULL;
  <PREEMPT>
store()
 __cpufreq_set_policy()
  __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS);
    policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS);
     case CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS:
      mutex_lock(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex); <-- Warning (destroyed mutex)
       if (policy->max < cpu_cdbs->cur_policy->cur) <- cur_policy == NULL

And so store() will eventually result in a crash if cur_policy is
NULL at this point.

Introduce an additional variable which would guarantee serialization
here.
