[PATCH] arm64: topology: Avoid the static_branch_{enable|disable} dance

Avoid the static_branch_enable() and static_branch_disable() dance by
redoing the code in a different way. We will be fully invariant here
only if amu_fie_cpus is set with all present CPUs, use that instead of
yet another call to topology_scale_freq_invariant().

This also avoids running rest of the routine if we enabled the static
branch, followed by a disable.

Also make the first call to topology_scale_freq_invariant() just when we
need it, instead of at the top of the routine. This makes it further
clear on why we need it, i.e. just around enabling AMUs use here.
