[PATCH V3 3/3] arm64: topology: Make AMUs work with modular cpufreq drivers

The AMU counters won't get used today if the cpufreq driver is built as
a module as the amu core requires everything to be ready by late init.

Fix that properly by registering for cpufreq policy notifier. Note that
the amu core don't have any cpufreq dependency after the first time
CPUFREQ_CREATE_POLICY notifier is called for all the CPUs. And so we
don't need to do anything on the CPUFREQ_REMOVE_POLICY notifier. And for
the same reason we check if the CPUs are already parsed in the beginning
of amu_fie_setup() and skip if that is true. Alternatively we can shoot
a work from there to unregister the notifier instead, but that seemed
too much instead of this simple check.

V3:
- This is a new patch.

Ionela,

I don't have a way to test the AMU stuff, will it be possible for you to
give it a try ?
