cpufreq: governor: Make governor private data per-policy
Some fields in struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s
are only used for a limited set of CPUs.  Namely, if a policy is
shared between multiple CPUs, those fields will only be used for one
of them (policy->cpu).  This means that they really are per-policy
rather than per-CPU and holding room for them in per-CPU data
structures is generally wasteful.  Also moving those fields into
per-policy data structures will allow some significant simplifications
to be made going forward.

For this reason, introduce struct cs_policy_dbs_info and
struct od_policy_dbs_info to hold those fields.  Define each of the
new structures as an extension of struct policy_dbs_info (such that
struct policy_dbs_info is embedded in each of them) and introduce
new ->alloc and ->free governor callbacks to allocate and free
those structures, respectively, such that ->alloc() will return
a pointer to the struct policy_dbs_info embedded in the allocated
data structure and ->free() will take that pointer as its argument.

With that, modify the code accessing the data fields in question
in per-CPU data objects to look for them in the new structures
via the struct policy_dbs_info pointer available to it and drop
them from struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s.
