__cpufreq_governor operation needs to be executed one by one.
If one operation is ongoing, the other operation can't be executed.
If the order is not guaranteed, there may be unexpected behavior.
For example, governor is in enable state, and one process
tries to stop the goveror, but it is scheduled out before policy->
governor->governor() is executed, but the governor enable flag is
set to false already. Then one other process tries to start governor,
It finds enable flag is false, and it can process down to do governor
start operation, So the governor is started twice.
Add the governor_ops_ongoing flag to check whether there is governor
operation ongoing, if so, return -EAGAIN.
