cpufreq: interactive: fix race on governor start/stop
There is race condition when both two cpu do CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP and one cpu
do CPUFREQ_GOV_START soon. The sysfs_remove_group is not done yet on one
cpu, but sysfs_create_group is called on another cpu, which cause governor
start failed and then kernel panic in timer callback because the policy and
cpu mask are all kfree in cpufreq driver.
Replace atomic with mutex to lock the whole START/STOP sequence.
