Set the newly added .register_em() callback to register with the EM

Can we use policy->related_cpus and friends directly in the callback

Unfortunately not. This tricky setup code was introduced because we may
have a platform with per-CPU policy, so single bit set in
policy->related_cpus, but we want EAS to be still working on set
of CPUs. That's why we construct temporary cpumask and pass it to EM.

instead? That should simplify the patch a bit.

Also, we can probably afford calling dev_pm_opp_get_opp_count() from the
em_register callback as it is not a hot path, which would avoid wasting
some 'resident' memory here that is only used during init.

Thanks,
Quentin
