cpufreq: Avoid calling cpufreq_verify_current_freq() from handle_update()
On some occasions cpufreq_verify_current_freq() schedules a work whose callback is handle_update(), which further calls cpufreq_update_policy() which may end up calling cpufreq_verify_current_freq() again. On the other hand, when cpufreq_update_policy() is called from handle_update(), the pointer to the cpufreq policy is already available, but cpufreq_cpu_acquire() is still called to get it in cpufreq_update_policy(), which should be avoided as well. To fix these issues, create a new helper, refresh_frequency_limits(), and make both handle_update() call it cpufreq_update_policy().

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
