What about calling this intel_pstate_update_cpu()?

Why don't you check cpu->ipi_in_progress here too and bail out if it is set?

That would allow you to avoid checking the time again below, woulnd't it?

The additional two empty lines are not necessary.

One additional empty line should be sufficient here.
