intel_pstate: Set CPU number before accessing MSRs
commit 179e8471 upstream. Ensure that cpu->cpu is set before writing MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL during CPU initialization. Otherwise only cpu0 has its P-state set and all other cores are left with their values unchanged. In most cases, this is not too serious because the P-states will be set correctly when the timer function is run. But when the default governor is set to performance, the per-CPU current_pstate stays the same forever and no attempts are made to write the MSRs again.
