[PATCH v2 1/4] cpufreq: Fix re-boost issue after hotplugging a cpu

[Lifeng Zheng]

It turns out that cpuX will stay on the base frequency after performing
these operations:

1. boost all cpus: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost

2. offline the cpu: echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online

3. deboost all cpus: echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost

4. online the cpu: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online

5. boost all cpus again: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost

This is because max_freq_req of the policy is not updated during the online
process, and the value of max_freq_req before the last offline is retained.
When the CPU is boosted again, freq_qos_update_request() will do nothing
because the old value is the same as the new one. This causes the CPU stay
on the base frequency. Update max_freq_req  in cpufreq_online() will solve
this problem.
