commit 9e4e249018 upstream.
Since acpi_processor_notify() can be called before registering a cpufreq
driver or even in cases when a cpufreq driver is not registered at all,
cpufreq_update_limits() needs to check if a cpufreq driver is present
and prevent it from being unregistered.
For this purpose, make it call cpufreq_cpu_get() to obtain a cpufreq
policy pointer for the given CPU and reference count the corresponding
policy object, if present.
