Subject: [PATCH 1/3] thermal: cpufreq_cooling: Update also offline CPUs per-cpu thermal_pressure

The thermal pressure signal gives information to the scheduler about
reduced CPU capacity due to thermal. It is based on a value stored in a
per-cpu 'thermal_pressure' variable. The online CPUs will get the new
value there, while the offline won't. Unfortunately, when the CPU is back
online, the value read from per-cpu variable might be wrong (stale data).
This might affect the scheduler decisions, since it sees the CPU capacity
differently than what is actually available.

Fix it by making sure that all online+offline CPUs would get the proper
value in their per-cpu variable when thermal framework sets capping.

Fixes: f12e4f66ab6a3 ("thermal/cpu-cooling: Update thermal pressure in case of a maximum frequency capping")
