cpufreq: schedutil: Publish util hooks only after all sg_cpu are initialized

Commit 16a03c71bba0 ("cpufreq: schedutil: Merge initialization code of
sg_cpu in single loop") merged the per-CPU initialization and the
utilization-hook registration into a single loop in sugov_start().

For a shared cpufreq policy this re-introduces the race originally fixed
by commit ab2f7cf141aa ("cpufreq: schedutil: Fix sugov_start() versus
sugov_update_shared() race").

The scheduler's util path reaches the hook under RCU-sched and never takes
policy->rwsem, so the rwsem held across sugov_start() cannot serialize the
two. Once the first CPU's hook is published, sugov_update_shared() may run
and, via sugov_next_freq_shared(), read/write each sibling sugov_cpu
(iowait_boost, util, bw_min, ...) concurrently with the memset() still
initializing them, with no lock common to both sides: the update side holds
sg_policy->update_lock while the init side holds only policy->rwsem, which
the scheduler's util path never takes.

The walk only accesses scalar members, never a pointer like ->sg_policy,
so it does not crash today; it merely uses stale (or zero on first start)
values that skew the frequency selection and tracepoints. It is still a
genuine data race, and a latent crash once any pointer member is
dereferenced there.

Restore the two-phase approach: initialize all per-CPU structures first,
and only then publish the per-CPU utilization update hooks.
