cpufreq/amd-pstate: Grab "amd_pstate_driver_lock" when toggling dynamic_epp

Concurrently changing driver mode and dynamic_epp with:

    echo passive > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/status&
    echo disable > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/dynamic_epp&

hits the WARN_ON_ONCE() in static_key_disable_cpuslocked() and hangs the
system since both sysfs writes are trying to do
amd_pstate_change_driver_mode() without any synchronization.

Grab the "amd_pstate_driver_lock" mutex when modifying "dynamic_epp" to
prevent the two paths from racing with each other. Add a lockdep
assertion for "amd_pstate_driver_lock" in
amd_pstate_change_driver_mode() to formalize the dependency.

Since "cppc_mode" is stable under "amd_pstate_driver_lock", only reload
the driver when in "AMD_PSTATE_ACTIVE" mode and reject all writes when
in passive or guided mode, or if the driver is not loaded, since only
active mode operates on EPP.
