Not really, this function is called two times, the first time to
update UCLAMP_MIN and a second time to update UCLAMP_MAX.

For both clamp_id we want to force update uc_cpu->value[clamp_id],
thus the UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE flag has to be cleared only the second time.

Maybe I can had the following comment to better explain the reason of
the check:

/*
* This function is called for both UCLAMP_MIN (before) and
* UCLAMP_MAX (after). Let's reset the flag only the when
* we know that UCLAMP_MIN has been already updated.
*/
