cpufreq: remove race while accessing cur_policy

While accessing cur_policy during executing events
CPUFREQ_GOV_START, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS,
same mutex lock is not taken, dbs_data->mutex, which leads
to race and data corruption while running continious suspend
resume test. This is seen with ondemand governor with suspend
resume test using rtcwake.
