[PATCH 3/7] cpufreq: update user_policy.* on success

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Sun Aug 02 2015 - 23:06:52 EST


'user_policy' caches properties of a policy that are set by userspace.
And these must be updated only if cpufreq core was successful in
updating them based on request from user space.

In store_scaling_governor(), we are updating user_policy.policy and
user_policy.governor even if cpufreq_set_policy() failed. That's
incorrect.

Fix this by updating user_policy.* only if we were successful in
updating the properties.
