[CPUFREQ] Bail out of cpufreq_add_dev if the link for a managed CPU got created
Doing: echo 0 >cpu1/online echo 1 >cpu1/online on a managed CPU will result in: Jul 22 15:15:37 linux kernel: [ 80.013864] WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:487 sysfs_add_one+0xcf/0xe6() Jul 22 15:15:37 linux kernel: [ 80.013866] Hardware name: To Be Filled By O.E.M.

This bug slipped in by git commit: 150b06f7f223cfd0f808737a5243cceca8ea47fa When splitting up cpufreq_add_dev, the whole cpufreq_add_dev function is not left anymore, only cpufreq_add_dev_policy. This patch should reconstruct the identical functionality again as it was before the split.
