Fix cpufreq_gov_ondemand to skip CPU where another governor is used.

The bug present itself as NULL pointer access on the mutex_lock() call,
an can be reproduced on an SMP machine by setting the default governor
to anything other than ondemand, setting a single CPU's governor to
ondemand, then changing the sample rate by writing on:
