[PATCH 2/2] cpufreq: powernv: Use PMSR to verify global and local pstate

As fast_switch may get called in interrupt disable mode, it does not
update the global_pstate_info data structure. Hence the global_pstate_info
has stale data whenever pstate is updated through fast_swtich().
So the gpstate_timer can fire after a fast_switch() call has update
the pstates to a different value. Hence the timer handler cannot rely
on the cached values of local and global pstate and needs to read it
from the PMSR.
