[PATCH] cpufreq: Fix per-policy boost behavior after CPU hotplug

[PoShao Chen]

This patch fixes the behavior of the cpufreq boost when the
global boost flag is toggled during CPU hotplug offline. This action
previously led to incorrect scaling_max_freq values when the CPU was
brought back online. The issue also manifested as incorrect
scaling_cur_freq under the performance governor.

For example, after the following operations, even if the global boost
is disabled, the resulting scaling_max_freq and scaling_cur_freq
will still reflect the settings of an enabled boost.

$ echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7/scaling_governor
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7/scaling_cur_freq
3200000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7/scaling_max_freq
3200000

$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7/scaling_cur_freq
3250000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7/scaling_max_freq
3250000

$ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online
$ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/online
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7/scaling_cur_freq
3250000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7/scaling_max_freq
3250000
