Even though aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() caches the samples.khz value to
return if called again in a sufficiently short time, its caller,
arch_freq_get_on_cpu(), still uses smp_call_function_single() to run it
which may allow user space to trigger an IPI storm by reading from the
scaling_cur_freq cpufreq sysfs file in a tight loop.
To avoid that, move the decision on whether or not to return the cached
samples.khz value to arch_freq_get_on_cpu().
This change was part of commit 941f5f0f6e ("x86: CPU: Fix up "cpu MHz"
in /proc/cpuinfo"), but it was not the reason for the revert and it
remains applicable.
