cpufreq: Fix serialization of frequency transitions
Commit 7c30ed ("cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized") interacts poorly with systems that have a single core freqency for all cores. On such systems we have a single policy for all cores with several CPUs. When we do a frequency transition the governor calls the pre and post change notifiers which causes cpufreq_notify_transition() per CPU. Since the policy is the same for all of them all CPUs after the first and the warnings added are generated by checking a per-policy flag the warnings will be triggered for all cores after the first. Fix this by allowing notifier to be called for n times. Where n is the number of cpus in policy->cpus.
