cpufreq: powernv: Disable preemption while checking CPU throttling state

commit 8a10c06a upstream.

With preemption turned on we can read incorrect throttling state
while being switched to CPU on a different chip.

 BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: cat/7343
 caller is .powernv_cpufreq_throttle_check+0x2c/0x710
 CPU: 13 PID: 7343 Comm: cat Not tainted 4.8.0-rc5-dirty #1
