[PATCH] cpufreq: powernv: Fix the hardlockup by synchronus smp_call in timer interrupt

[Shilpasri G Bhat]

gpstate_timer_handler() uses synchronous smp_call to set the pstate
on the requested core. This causes the below hard lockup:

Fix this by using the asynchronus smp_call in the timer interrupt handler.
We don't have to wait in this handler until the pstates are changed on
the core. This change will not have any impact on the global pstate
ramp-down algorithm.
