Missed Kevin in cc. :(
Sorry about that.

Subject: [PATCH] OMAP2+: CPUfreq: Allow the CPU scaling when secondary CPUs are offline.

Current OMAP2PLUS CPUfreq tagret() functions returns when all
the CPU's are not online. This will break DVFS when secondary
CPUs are offlined.

The intention of that check was just avoid CPU frequency change
during the window when CPU becomes online but it's cpufreq_init is
not done yet.

Fix the check accordingly.

Thanks for Nishant Menon <nm@xxxxxx> for reporting it.

There were some question of making the variable atomic etc
in an internal discussion. After some thinking, I realised
there is no need of that since this is just a counter which
maintains the count for online_cpus = cpufreq_init_cpus.
