Subject: [PATCH] PM / devfreq: passive: Update frequency when start governor

If the parent device changes the their frequency before registering
the passive device, the passive device cannot receive the notification
from parent device and then the passive device cannot be able to
set the proper frequency according to the frequency of parent device.

So, when start the passive governor, update the frequency
according to the frequency of parent device.
