[PATCH v3] cpufreq/cppc: Remove the desired_perf compare when set target

From: Riwen Lu <luriwen@xxxxxxxxxx>

There is a case that desired_perf is exactly the same with the old perf,
but the actual current freq is not.

This happened in S3 while the cpufreq governor is set to powersave.
During cpufreq resume process, the booting CPU's new_freq obtained via
get() is the highest frequency, while the policy->cur and
cpu->perf_ctrls.desired_perf are in the lowest level(powersave
governor). Causing the warning: "CPU frequency out of sync:", and set
policy->cur to new_freq. Then the governor->limits() calls
cppc_cpufreq_set_target() to configures the CPU frequency and returns
directly because the desired_perf converted from target_freq is the
same with cpu->perf_ctrls.desired_perf and both are the lowest_perf.
Since target_freq and policy->cur have been compared in
__cpufreq_driver_target(), there's no need to compare desired_perf
and cpu->perf_ctrls.desired_perf again in cppc_cpufreq_set_target()
to ensure that the CPU frequency is properly configured.
