intel_idle: Avoid a double free of the per-CPU data.
The helper function, intel_idle_cpuidle_devices_uninit, frees the globally allocated per-CPU data. However, this function is invoked from the hot plug notifier callback at a time when freeing that data is not safe. If the call to cpuidle_register_driver() should fail (say, due to lack of memory), then the driver will free its per-CPU region. On the *next* CPU_ONLINE event, the driver will happily use the region again and even free it again if the failure repeats. This patch fixes the issue by moving the call to free_percpu() outside of the helper function at the two call sites that actually need to free the per-CPU data.
