Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: Init completion before kobject_init_and_add()

In cpufreq_policy_alloc(), it will call uninitialed completion in
cpufreq_sysfs_release() when kobject_init_and_add() fails. And
that will cause a crash such as the following page fault in complete:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffffffffffff8
