[PATCH] cpufreq_conservative: aligning of codebase with ondemand

Since the conservative govenor was released its codebase has drifted from the
the direction and updates that have been applied to the ondemand govornor.

This patch addresses the lack of updates in that period and brings
conservative back up to date.  The resulting diff file between
cpufreq_ondemand.c and cpufreq_conservative.c is now much smaller and shows
more clearly the differences between the two.

Another reason to do this is ages ago, knowingly, I did a piss poor attempt
at making conservative less responsive by knocking up
DEF_SAMPLING_RATE_LATENCY_MULTIPLIER by two orders of magnitude.  I did fix
this ages ago but in my dis-organisation I must have toasted the diff and
left it the way it was.  About two weeks ago a user contacted me saying he
was having problems with the conservative governor with his AMD Athlon XP-M
2800+ as /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/conservative showed
  sampling_rate_min   9950000
  sampling_rate_max   1360065408

Nine seconds to decide about changing the frequency....not too responsive :)
