cpufreq: arm_big_little: fix frequency check when bL switcher is active
The check for correct frequency being set in bL_cpufreq_set_rate is broken when the big.LITTLE switcher is active, for two reasons. 1. The 'new_rate' variable gets overwritten before the test by the code calculating the frequency of the old cluster. 2. The frequency returned by bL_cpufreq_get_rate will be the virtual frequency, not the actual one the intended version of new_rate contains. This means the function always returns an error causing an endless stream of: "cpufreq: __target_index: Failed to change cpu frequency: -5" As the intent is to check for errors that clk_set_rate doesn't report lets move the check to immediately after that and directly use clk_get_rate, rather than the arm_big_little helpers which only confuse matters. Also, update the comment to be hopefully clearer about the purpose of the code.
