cpufreq: amd-pstate: Fix invalid write to MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ

`amd_pstate_set_epp` function uses `cppc_req_cached` and `epp` variable
to update the MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ register for AMD MSR systems. The recent
commit 7cca9a98 ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: avoid uninitialized variable
use") changed the sequence of updating cppc_req_cached and writing the
MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ. Therefore while switching from powersave to
performance governor and vice-versa in active mode MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ is
set with the previous cached value. To fix this: first update the
`cppc_req_cached` variable and then call `amd_pstate_set_epp` function.

 - Before commit 7cca9a98 ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: avoid uninitialized
   variable use"):

With powersave governor:
[    1.652743] amd_pstate_epp_init: writing to cppc_req_cached = 0x1eff
[    1.652744] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing cppc_req_cached = 0x1eff
[    1.652746] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing min_perf = 30, des_perf = 0, max_perf = 255, epp = 0

Changing to performance governor:
[  300.493842] amd_pstate_epp_init: writing to cppc_req_cached = 0xffff
[  300.493846] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing cppc_req_cached = 0xffff
[  300.493847] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing min_perf = 255, des_perf = 0, max_perf = 255, epp = 0

 - After commit 7cca9a98 ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: avoid uninitialized
   variable use"):

With powersave governor:
[    1.646037] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing cppc_req_cached = 0xffff
[    1.646038] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing min_perf = 255, des_perf = 0, max_perf = 255, epp = 0
[    1.646042] amd_pstate_epp_init: writing to cppc_req_cached = 0x1eff

Changing to performance governor:
[  687.117401] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing cppc_req_cached = 0x1eff
[  687.117405] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing min_perf = 30, des_perf = 0, max_perf = 255, epp = 0
[  687.117419] amd_pstate_epp_init: writing to cppc_req_cached = 0xffff

 - After this fix:

With powersave governor:
[    2.525717] amd_pstate_epp_init: writing to cppc_req_cached = 0x1eff
[    2.525720] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing cppc_req_cached = 0x1eff
[    2.525722] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing min_perf = 30, des_perf = 0, max_perf = 255, epp = 0

Changing to performance governor:
[ 3440.152468] amd_pstate_epp_init: writing to cppc_req_cached = 0xffff
[ 3440.152473] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing cppc_req_cached = 0xffff
[ 3440.152474] amd_pstate_set_epp: writing min_perf = 255, des_perf = 0, max_perf = 255, epp = 0
