Resolving a frequency to an efficient one should not transgress policy->max (which can be set for thermal reason) and policy->min. Currently there is possibility where scaling_cur_freq can exceed scaling_max_freq when scaling_max_freq is inefficient frequency. Add additional check to ensure that resolving a frequency will respect policy->min/max.
