Replace the CPU device PM QoS used for the management of min and max frequency constraints in cpufreq (and its users) with per-policy frequency QoS to avoid problems with cpufreq policies covering more then one CPU. Namely, a cpufreq driver is registered with the subsys interface which calls cpufreq_add_dev() for each CPU, starting from CPU0, so currently the PM QoS notifiers are added to the first CPU in the policy (i.e. CPU0 in the majority of cases). In turn, when the cpufreq driver is unregistered, the subsys interface doing that calls cpufreq_remove_dev() for each CPU, starting from CPU0, and the PM QoS notifiers are only removed when cpufreq_remove_dev() is called for the last CPU in the policy, say CPUx, which as a rule is not CPU0 if the policy covers more than one CPU. Then, the PM QoS notifiers cannot be removed, because CPUx does not have them, and they are still there in the device PM QoS notifiers list of CPU0, which prevents new PM QoS notifiers from being registered for CPU0 on the next attempt to register the cpufreq driver. The same issue occurs when the first CPU in the policy goes offline before unregistering the driver. After this change it does not matter which CPU is the policy CPU at the driver registration time and whether or not it is online all the time, because the frequency QoS is per policy and not per CPU.
