After brought one CPU offline, lscpu returned failure:

lscpu: cannot read /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu64/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq: Device or resource busy

which had blocked all outputs of lscpu.

This is not the case mentioned in commit d4627a287e251, as the policy
had been created successfully but is inactive due to CPU gets offline.
To fix this issue, just add an addtional check whether CPU is online or
not.

Fixes: d4627a287e251 ("cpufreq: Abort show()/store() for half-initialized policies")

Here is all right.
The problem is that when I offline one cpu manually and lscpu will fail.
The reproduce process is as follows:
1. lscpu (success)
2. echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu63/online (offline cpu63)
3. lscpu (fail, and print the error message, “lscpu: cannot read /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu64/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq: Device or resource busy”)

I think this failure doesn’t make sense.

Maybe I should make the commit message more readable.

Thanks,
Guanjun
