Subject: [RFC 8/9] intel_pstate: ignore scheduler cpufreq callbacks on remote CPUs

From: Steve Muckle <smuckle.linux@...il.com>

In preparation for the scheduler cpufreq callback happening on remote
CPUs, check for this case in intel_pstate which currently requires the
callback run on the local CPU. Such callbacks are ignored for now.
