The function update_policy_cpu() is expected to be called when the policy->cpu
of a cpufreq policy is to be changed: ie., the new CPU nominated to become the
policy->cpu is different from the old one.

Print a warning if it is invoked with new_cpu == old_cpu, since such an
invocation might hint at a faulty logic in the caller.
