Check .get_dev_status() in devfreq_update_stats in case it's abused
when a device does not provide it.

I'm considering the following method instead of returning the error
when .get_dev_status is NULL.

        if (!df->profile->get_dev_status) {
                df->last_status.total_time = 0;
                df->last_status.busy_time = 0;
                df->last_status.current_frequency = 0;
                return 0;
        }
I might  suggest not cause it's meaningless for ondemand governor but
introducing confusing. Simply return error could make the life a bit easier.
does it make sense to you?
Actually, I considered the some corner case as following:
We can see the simple_ondemand governor through available_governors
even if the devfreq driver doesn't implement the .get_dev_status.
In this corner case, My intention tried to prevent the error
on this case. But, actually, it is different issue. I'll fix
this issue when get_dev_status is NULL, don't show the
simple_ondemand governor name through available_governors
on other patch.

And I applied it. Thanks.
