cpufreq: Add stop CPU callback to cpufreq_driver interface

Browse source 
This callback allows the driver to do clean up before the CPU is
completely down and its state cannot be modified.  This is used
by the intel_pstate driver to reduce the requested P state prior to
the core going away.  This is required because the requested P state
of the offline core is used to select the package P state. This
effectively sets the floor package P state to the requested P state on
the offline core.
