Subject: [PATCH] tools/power x86_energy_perf_policy: fix resource leak on file descriptor

Function get_pkg_num is leaking an open file, fix this with a fclose().

Detected with static analysis by cppcheck:
[tools/power/x86/x86_energy_perf_policy/x86_energy_perf_policy.c:1115]:
(error) Resource leak: fp
