cpufreq: Introduce cpufreq_policy_refresh()

Since cpufreq_update_limits() obtains a cpufreq policy pointer for the
given CPU and reference counts the object pointed to by it, calling
cpufreq_update_policy() from cpufreq_update_limits() is somewhat
wasteful because that function calls cpufreq_cpu_get() on the same
CPU again.

To avoid that unnecessary overhead, move the part of the code running
under the policy rwsem from cpufreq_update_policy() to a new function
called cpufreq_policy_refresh() and invoke that new function from
both cpufreq_update_policy() and cpufreq_update_limits().
