    cpufreq: only stop ondemand governor if already started
    
    On CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP in cpufreq_governor_dbs, shortcut to
    return success if the governor is already stopped.
    
    Avoid executing dbs_timer_exit, to prevent tripping an assertion
    within a call to kill_timer on a timer that has not been prepared
    with init_timer, if the CPUFREQ_GOV_START case has not
    run beforehand.
    
    kill_timer validates timer state:
     * itself, via BUG_ON(this_cpu(timers).running == timer);
     * within active_timer, ASSERTing timer->status is within bounds;
     * within list_del, which ASSERTs timer inactive list membership.
    
    Patch is synonymous to an OpenXT patch produced at Citrix prior to
    June 2014.
