It was caused by the policy->cpus changed during the process of
__gov_queue_work(), in other word, cpu offline happened.
Use get/put_online_cpus() to prevent the offline from happening while
__gov_queue_work() is running.
[rjw: The problem has been present since recent commit
4ac7416
(cpufreq: governors: Avoid unnecessary per cpu timer interrupts)]
