cpufreq: powernow-k8: pass policy rather than use cpufreq_cpu_get()
Currently there is an unlikely case where cpufreq_cpu_get() returns a NULL policy and this will cause a NULL pointer dereference later on. Fix this by passing the policy to transition_frequency_fidvid() from the caller and hence eliminating the need for the cpufreq_cpu_get() and cpufreq_cpu_put(). Thanks to Viresh Kumar for suggesting the fix.
