cpufreq: Remove max_freq_req update for pre-existing policy

policy->max_freq_req QoS constraint represents the maximal allowed
frequency than can be requested. It is set by:
 - writing to policyX/scaling_max sysfs file
 - toggling the cpufreq/boost sysfs file

Upon calling freq_qos_update_request(), a successful update
of the max_freq_req value triggers cpufreq_notifier_max(),
followed by cpufreq_set_policy() which update the requested
frequency for the policy.
If the new max_freq_req value is not different from the
original value, no frequency update is triggered.

In a specific sequence of toggling:
 - cpufreq/boost sysfs file
 - CPU hot-plugging
a CPU could end up with boost enabled but running at the
maximal non-boost frequency, cpufreq_notifier_max() not being
triggered. The following fixed that:
commit 1608f0230510 ("cpufreq: Fix re-boost issue after hotplugging
a CPU")

The following:
commit dd016f379ebc ("cpufreq: Introduce a more generic way to
set default per-policy boost flag")
also fixed the issue by correctly setting the max_freq_req
constraint of a policy that is re-activated. This makes the
first fix unnecessary.

As the original issue is fixed by another method,
this patch reverts:
commit 1608f0230510 ("cpufreq: Fix re-boost issue after hotplugging
a CPU")
