Implement the light-weight tear down and bring up helpers to reduce the
amount of work to do on CPU offline/online operation.

I think you could avoid having to add this empty stub if the core
checked for both online and offline, that is

if (driver->offline || driver->online) {
    ret = driver->online ? driver->online(policy) : 0;
} else {
    ret = driver->init(policy);
}

or similar.

This doesn't look great as all we should care about here is ->online()
and checking for offline as well looks a bit hacky.

I also thought of a new flag like: CPUFREQ_LIGHT_WEIGHT_OFFLINE and
then we can get rid of both online/offline dummies but then thought of
starting with the dummy routines to begin with :)

That's a matter of the driver I/F definition.

You can require online to be there if offline is set and the other way
around (but then you should check if that's the case while registering
the driver) or you can allow just one of them to be provided for the
lightweight online/offline to be done.  In the latter case the
presence of the other callback plays the role of a flag.

Both are basically fine by me, but if you go for the former, please
add the checks to cpufreq_register_driver().
