cpufreq: ondemand: Fix update_sampling_rate race with hotplug
update_sampling_rate has a for loop which goes through each
online cpu and possibly queue up the ondemand work for them.
But while doing this it doesnt take any hotplug lock which
could potentially cause a race condition where ondemand work
is queued after the hotplug code (which sets the policy to NULL)
in the governor has cancelled any pending work. This could cause
a crash while trying to access the NULL policy in dbs_check_cpu.
Protecting the for_each_online_cpu loop with get_online_cpus()
and put_online_cpus().
