cpufreq: Cancel policy update work scheduled before freeing
Scheduled policy update work may end up racing with the freeing of the
policy and unregistering the driver.
One possible race is as below, where the cpufreq_driver is unregistered,
but the scheduled work gets executed at later stage when, cpufreq_driver
is NULL (i.e. after freeing the policy and driver).
