cpufreq/amd-pstate: Grab "amd_pstate_driver_lock" when toggling dynamic_epp
Concurrently changing driver mode and dynamic_epp with: echo passive > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/status& echo disable > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/dynamic_epp& hits the WARN_ON_ONCE() in static_key_disable_cpuslocked() and hangs the system since both sysfs writes are trying to do amd_pstate_change_driver_mode() without any synchronization. Grab the "amd_pstate_driver_lock" mutex when modifying "dynamic_epp" to prevent the two paths from racing with each other. Add a lockdep assertion for "amd_pstate_driver_lock" in amd_pstate_change_driver_mode() to formalize the dependency. Since "cppc_mode" is stable under "amd_pstate_driver_lock", only reload the driver when in "AMD_PSTATE_ACTIVE" mode and reject all writes when in passive or guided mode, or if the driver is not loaded, since only active mode operates on EPP.
