Commit 099967699ad9 ("cpufreq: Cancel policy update work scheduled before freeing")
added cancel_work_sync(policy->update) after the frequency QoS were
removed. We can cancel the work just after taking the last CPU in the
policy offline and unregistering the notifiers as policy->update cannot
be scheduled from anywhere at this point.

However, due to other bugs, doing so still triggered the race between
freeing of policy and scheduled policy update work. Now that all those
issues are resolved, we can move this cancelling of any scheduled policy
update work just after removing min/max notifiers.

Hi Rafael,

Based on Viresh's suggestion, I am posting a patch to move this
cancel_work_sync earlier though it's not a must have change.
I will leave it up to your preference.

Regards,
Sudeep

Thanks for doing this.

Folded into the previous patch and applied.

Please double check the result in the current linux-next branch in my tree.

I would have kept the blank line after cancel_work_sync() which isn't
there anymore.

OK, it looks better with the extra blank line, so updated.  Thanks!
