The cpufreq core doesn't remove the cpufreq policy anymore on CPU
offline operation, rather that happens when the CPU device gets
unregistered from the kernel. This allows faster recovery when the CPU
comes back online. This is also very useful during system wide
suspend/resume where we offline all non-boot CPUs during suspend and
then bring them back on resume.

This commit takes the same idea a step ahead to allow drivers to do
light weight tear-down during CPU offline operation.

A new callback is introduced, light_weight_exit(), which gets called
when all the CPUs of a policy are removed/offlined and the existing
exit() callback gets called when the policy gets freed.
