Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: cppc_cpufreq: Initialize shared cpu's perf capabilities

When multiple cpus are related in one cpufreq policy, the first online
cpu will be chosen by default to handle cpufreq operations. Let's take
cpu0 and cpu1 as an example.

When cpu0 is offline, policy->cpu will be shifted to cpu1. Cpu1's should
be initialized. Otherwise, perf capabilities are 0s and speed change can
not take effect.

This patch copies perf capabilities of the first online cpu to other
shared cpus when policy shared type is CPUFREQ_SHARED_TYPE_ANY.

The original RFC link,
  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10299055/.

This patch solves same issue as RFC above.

Patch name is changed as code is too much different with RFC above.

Remove extra init() per Viresh Kumar's comments and only handle
CPPC CPUFREQ_SHARED_TYPE_ANY case.
