Current OMAP2PLUS CPUfreq tagret() functions returns when all

The intention of that check was just avoid CPU frequency change
during the window when CPU becomes online but it's cpufreq_init is
not done yet.
Fix the check accordingly.
Thanks for Nishant Menon<n...@ti.com> for reporting it.

There were some question of making the variable atomic etc
in an internal discussion. After some thinking, I realised
there is no need of that since this is just a counter which
maintains the count for online_cpus = cpufreq_init_cpus.
Since this is init-time only check, the check for every call to
->target() seems excessive.
How about leaving the ->target callback empty until all the CPUs are
online.
Can do that as well.
After re-looking at this, seems not straight forward. This check is
not for cpufreqdriver_init time but per-CPU init functions which is
called after the driver is registered to the governor. We don't do
registration again except the cases where driver is build as a module.
How do we handle that ?

Santosh
