cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks
Introduce a mechanism by which parts of the cpufreq subsystem ("setpolicy" drivers or the core) can register callbacks to be executed from cpufreq_update_util() which is invoked by the scheduler's update_load_avg() on CPU utilization changes. This allows the "setpolicy" drivers to dispense with their timers and do all of the computations they need and frequency/voltage adjustments in the update_load_avg() code path, among other things. The update_load_avg() changes were suggested by Peter Zijlstra. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
