[CPUFREQ] ondemand/conservative: sanitize sampling_rate restrictions
Limit sampling rate to transition_latency * 100 or kernel limits. If sampling_rate is tried to be set too low, set the lowest allowed value. Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
