Cover letter [patch 0/4] Take care of cpufreq lockdep issues (take 2)

Since recent chanegs to ondemand and conservative governor, there have been multiple reports of lockdep issues in cpufreq. Patch series takes care of these problems.

This is the next attempt following the one here, which was not a complete fix.

I am currently running some stress tests to make sure there are no issues with these patches. But, wanted to send them out for review/comments/testing before I head out for the long weekend.

If this patchset seems sane, the first patch in the patchset should also get into 30.stable.
