cpufreq: Skip current frequency initialization for ->setpolicy drivers

After commit da60ce9f2fac (cpufreq: call cpufreq_driver->get() after 
calling ->init()) __cpufreq_add_dev() sometimes fails for CPUs handled 
by intel_pstate, because that driver may return 0 from its ->get() 
callback if it has not run long enough to collect enough samples on the 
given CPU. That didn't happen before commit da60ce9f2fac which added 
policy->cur initialization to __cpufreq_add_dev() to help reduce code 
duplication in other cpufreq drivers. 
... 

Already backported to 3.13 since 3.13.0-20. 
Will investigate why we are suffering from the same problem for their kernel 
(3.13.0-43).
