From: Cristiano Prisciandaro <cristiano.p@xxxxxxxxx>
The bios of the eeepc 900 exposes an acpi method that allows clocking
the cpu to 630/900 MHz. This driver allows controlling the frequency
switch through the cpufreq subsystem.

+ * This driver is based on the (experimental) finding that the

+ * It seems to work fine with the following BIOS versions:
+ * 0501, 0601, 0704 and 0802.
