[CPUFREQ] Don't set stat->last_index to -1 if the pol->cur has incorrect value.

If the driver submitted an non-existing pol>cur value (say it
used the default initialized value of zero), when the cpufreq
stats tries to setup its initial values it incorrectly sets
stat->last_index to -1 (or 0xfffff...). And cpufreq_stats_update
tries to update at that index location and fails.

This can be caused by:

stat->last_index = freq_table_get_index(stat, policy->cur);

not finding the appropiate frequency in the table (b/c the policy->cur
is wrong) and we end up crashing. The fix however is
concentrated in the 'cpufreq_stats_update' as the last_index
(and old_index) are updated there. Which means it can reset
the last_index to -1 again and on the next iteration cause a crash.

Without this patch, the following crash is observed:
