CPU_FREQ_GOV_ONDEMAND — "Ondemand" CPUFreq policy governor

This driver adds a dynamic CPUFreq policy governor. The governor polls the CPU and changes its frequency based on CPU utilization. Support for this governor depends on the CPU's ability to do fast frequency switching (i.e, very low latency frequency transitions).

For details, take a look at Documentation/cpu-freq.
