In the amd_pstate_adjust_perf(), there is one cpufreq_cpu_get() call to
increase increments the kobject reference count of policy and make it as
busy. Therefore, a corresponding call to cpufreq_cpu_put() is needed to
decrement the kobject reference count back, it will resolve the kernel
hang issue when unregistering the amd-pstate driver and register the
`amd_pstate_epp` driver instance.
