cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume
Toralf Förster reported that the cpufreq ondemand governor behaves erratically (doesn't scale well) after a suspend/resume cycle. The problem was that the cpufreq subsystem's idea of the cpu frequencies differed from the actual frequencies set in the hardware after a suspend/resume cycle. Toralf bisected the problem to commit a66b2e50 (cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume). Among other (harmless) things, that commit skipped the call to cpufreq_update_policy() in the resume path. But cpufreq_update_policy() plays an important role during resume, because it is responsible for checking if the BIOS changed the cpu frequencies behind our back and resynchronize the cpufreq subsystem's knowledge of the cpu frequencies, and update them accordingly. So, restore the call to cpufreq_update_policy() in the resume path to fix the cpufreq regression. Reported-and-tested-by: Toralf Förster <toralf.foerster@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.
