Now that we maintain a list of all 'struct policy_dbs_info' for an instance of 'struct dbs_data', we can traverse that instead of traversing the loop for all online CPUs.
This also solves the circular dependency lockdep reported by Juri (and verified by Shilpa) earlier:
====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 4.4.0+ #445 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- trace.sh/1723 is trying to acquire lock: (s_active#48){++++.+}, at: [<c01f78c8>] kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x4c/0x94
but task is already holding lock: (od_dbs_cdata.mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c05824a0>] cpufreq_governor_dbs+0x34/0x5d4
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:
Chain exists of: s_active#48 --> &policy->rwsem --> od_dbs_cdata.mutex
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(od_dbs_cdata.mutex); lock(&policy->rwsem); lock(od_dbs_cdata.mutex); lock(s_active#48);
