[PATCH v2] cpufreq: skip cpufreq resume if it's not suspended

From: Bo Yan

cpufreq_resume can be called even without preceding cpufreq_suspend.
This can happen in following scenario:

suspend_devices_and_enter
--> dpm_suspend_start
--> dpm_prepare
--> device_prepare : this function errors out
--> dpm_suspend: this is skipped due to dpm_prepare failure
this means cpufreq_suspend is skipped over
--> goto Recover_platform, due to previous error
--> goto Resume_devices
--> dpm_resume_end
--> dpm_resume
--> cpufreq_resume

In case schedutil is used as frequency governor, cpufreq_resume will
eventually call sugov_start, which does following:

memset(sg_cpu, 0, sizeof(*sg_cpu));
....

This effectively erases function pointer for frequency update, causing
crash later on. The function pointer would have been set correctly if
subsequent cpufreq_add_update_util_hook runs successfully, but that
function returns earlier because cpufreq_suspend was not called:

if (WARN_ON(per_cpu(cpufreq_update_util_data, cpu)))
return;

Ideally, suspend should succeed, then things will be fine. But even
in case of suspend failure, system should not crash.

The fix is to check the pm_transition status in dpm_resume. if
pm_transition.event == PMSG_ON, we know for sure dpm_suspend has not
been called, so do not call cpufreq_resume.
