Delete this line too? Does GCC not complain about unreachable code?

out_exit_policy label includes a call to cpufreq_policy_free(). That 
function needs to be changed to not call cpufreq_policy_put_kobj() in 
this case so that we don't try to kobject_put() an unallocated kobj.

Maybe you an call cpufreq_policy_put_kobj() in the error handling path 
of this function? Basically split out kojb alloc and free from policy 
alloc and free and alloc/free them around the same time 
(cpufreq_remove_Dev() will have to also call cpufreq_policy_put_kobj() 
when real_cpus is empty().

The refactor is just a suggestion. I'm looking at the latest code in a 
gitweb and making comments. So, I might have missed some corner cases in 
the refactor.

Also, it might be better to move the notifier from within 
cpufreq_policy_put_kobj() to cpufreq_policy_free()? Seems more appropriate.

Thanks,
Saravana
