With the addition of following patch:

fcf8058 cpufreq: Simplify cpufreq_add_dev()

cpufreq driver's .init() routine must initialize policy->cpus with mask of all
possible cpus (Online + Offline) that share the clock. Then the core would copy
this mask onto policy->related_cpus and will reset policy->cpus to carry only
online cpus.

acpi-cpufreq driver wasn't updated with this assumption and so sometimes when
we try to hot[un]plug cpus at run time, sysfs directories gets corrupted.

This patch fixes acpi-cpufreq driver against this corruption.
