cpufreq/sparc-us3: Replace racy task affinity logic



The access to the safari config register in the CPU frequency functions
must be executed on the target CPU. This is achieved by temporarily setting
the affinity of the calling user space thread to the requested CPU and
reset it to the original affinity afterwards.

That's racy vs. CPU hotplug and concurrent affinity settings for that
thread resulting in code executing on the wrong CPU and overwriting the
new affinity setting.

Replace it by a straight forward smp function call.
