PM / devfreq: fix use after free in devfreq_remove_device
In devfreq_remove_device, calling _remove_devfreq will also free devfreq. Don't dereference devfreq->governor->no_central_polling after _remove_devfreq. Signed-off-by: Axel Lin <axel.lin@gmail.com> Acked-by: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
