[PATCH 1/3] cpufreq: stats: Remove redundant cpufreq_cpu_get() call

__cpufreq_stats_create_table always gets pass the valid and real policy
struct. So, there's no need to call cpufreq_cpu_get() to get the policy
again.

Viresh/Rafael,

These 3 patches is the approximate code I have in mind.

Approximate because:
* I inserted one question as a comment into the code.
* If the patch doesn't have any bugs, the plan is to remove
  cpufreq_generic_get() and references to it.

This takes care of the "don't advertise before it's ready for use" rule.

Viresh,

I think the locking updates needs to be done in addition to this.

Regards,
Saravana
