cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use likely() optimization in intel_pstate_sample() 

The comment above the condition `if (cpu->last_sample_time)` clearly
indicates that the branch is taken for the vast majority of invocations
after the first sample in a cycle. The first sample is a one-time
initialization case.

Add likely() hint to the condition to improve branch prediction for
this performance-critical path in intel_pstate_sample().
