OPP: Fix race between OPP addition and lookup

A race exists between dev_pm_opp_add_dynamic() and
dev_pm_opp_find_freq_exact():

  CPU0 (add)                          CPU1 (lookup)
  -------------------------------     ------------------------------
  _opp_add()
    mutex_lock()
    list_add(&new_opp->node, head)
    mutex_unlock()                    _opp_table_find_key()
                                        mutex_lock()
                                        dev_pm_opp_get(opp)
                                          kref_get()
                                        mutex_unlock()
    kref_init(&new_opp->kref)
                                      dev_pm_opp_put()
                                        kref_put_mutex()

The newly added OPP is inserted into the list before its kref is
initialized. A concurrent lookup can find this OPP and increment its
reference count while it is still uninitialized, leading to refcount
corruption and a potential premature free.

Fix this by initializing ->kref and ->opp_table before making the OPP
visible via list_add(). This ensures any concurrent lookup observes a
fully initialized object.
