From: Bibek Basu <bbasu@nvidia.com>

commit c5450db85b828d0c46ac8fc570fb8a51bf07ac40 upstream.

While accessing cur_policy during executing events
CPUFREQ_GOV_START, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS,
same mutex lock is not taken, dbs_data->mutex, which leads
to race and data corruption while running continious suspend
resume test. This is seen with ondemand governor with suspend
resume test using rtcwake.

 Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000028
