cpufreq: Skip current frequency initialization for ->setpolicy drivers
After commit da60ce9f2fac (cpufreq: call cpufreq_driver->get() after
calling ->init()) __cpufreq_add_dev() sometimes fails for CPUs handled
by intel_pstate, because that driver may return 0 from its ->get()
callback if it has not run long enough to collect enough samples on the
given CPU. That didn't happen before commit da60ce9f2fac which added
policy->cur initialization to __cpufreq_add_dev() to help reduce code
duplication in other cpufreq drivers.
However, the code added by commit da60ce9f2fac need not be executed
for cpufreq drivers having the ->setpolicy callback defined, because
the subsequent invocation of cpufreq_set_policy() will use that
callback to initialize the policy anyway and it doesn't need
policy->cur to be initialized upfront. The analogous code in
cpufreq_update_policy() is also unnecessary for cpufreq drivers
having ->setpolicy set and may be skipped for them as well.
Since intel_pstate provides ->setpolicy, skipping the upfront
policy->cur initialization for cpufreq drivers with that callback
set will cover intel_pstate and the problem it's been having after
commit da60ce9f2fac will be addressed.
Fixes: da60ce9f2fac (cpufreq: call cpufreq_driver->get() after calling ->init())
