[PATCH] PM / devfreq: Rewrite devfreq_update_status() to fix multiple bugs

The current devfreq_update_status() has the following bugs:
- If previous frequency doesn't have a valid level, it does an out of bounds
access into the trans_table and causes memory corruption.
- When the new frequency doesn't have a valid level, the time spent in the
new frequency is counted towards the next valid frequency switch instead of
being ignored.
- The time spent on the previous frequency is added to the new frequency's
stats instead of the previous frequency's stats.
This patch fixes all of this.
