 cpufreq: Avoid false-positive WARN_ON()s in cpufreq_update_policy()

on top of commit 4c2e07c6a29e0129e975727b9f57eede813eea85

 Linux 4.7-rc5

Three cpufreq fixes, one in the core (stable-candidate) and two
in drivers (intel_pstate and cpufreq-dt).

Specifics:

 - Fix a recent intel_pstate regression that caused the number of
   wakeups to increase significantly on an idle system in some cases
   due to excessive synchronize_sched() invocations (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Fix unnecessary invocations of WARN_ON() in the cpufreq core
   after cpufreq has been suspended introduced during the 4.6 cycla
   (Rafael Wysocki).

 - Fix an error code path in the cpufreq-dt-platdev driver that
   forgets to drop a reference to a DT node (Masahiro Yamada).

Thanks!
