The dbs_data_mutex lock is currently used in two places.  First,
cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses it to guarantee mutual exclusion between
invocations of governor operations from the core.  Second, it is used by
ondemand governor's update_sampling_rate() to ensure the stability of
data structures walked by it.

The second usage is quite problematic, because update_sampling_rate() is
called from a governor sysfs attribute's ->store callback and that leads
to a deadlock scenario involving cpufreq_governor_exit() which runs
under dbs_data_mutex.  Thus it is better to rework the code so
update_sampling_rate() doesn't need to acquire dbs_data_mutex.

To that end, rework update_sampling_rate() to walk a list of policy_dbs
objects supported by the dbs_data one it has been called for (instead of
walking cpu_dbs_info object for all CPUs).  The list manipulation is
protected with dbs_data->mutex which also is held around the execution
of update_sampling_rate(), it is not necessary to hold dbs_data_mutex in
that function any more.
