Subject: [PATCH 1/2] cpufreq: governors: Fix CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_{INIT|EXIT} notifiers

There are two types of INIT/EXIT activities that we need to do for governors:
- Done only once per governor (doesn't depend how many instances of governor
  were there). eg: cpufreq_register_notifier() for conservative governor.
- Done per instance of governor, eg: sysfs_{create|remove}_group().

There were some corner cases where current code isn't able to handle them
separately and so failing for some test cases.

We use two separate variables now for keeping track of above two requirements.
- governor->initialized for first one
- dbs_data->usage_count for per governor instance
