In preparation for the scheduler cpufreq callback happening on remote
CPUs, add support for this in schedutil.

Schedutil currently requires the callback occur on the CPU being
updated in order to support fast frequency switches. Remove this
limitation by checking for the current CPU being outside the target
CPU's cpufreq policy and if this is the case, enqueuing an irq_work on
the target CPU. The irq_work for schedutil is modified to carry out a
fast frequency switch if that is enabled for the policy.

If the callback occurs on a CPU within the target CPU's policy, the
transition is carried out on the local CPU.

Do you have a preference on how to restructure this? Otherwise I'll
create a second version of sugov_update_commit, factoring out as much of
it as I can into two inline sub-functions.

Will do.
