Atleast my poor mind can't make out how. To me it looks like broken now.

When can we enter this "if" block, probably only in case where max freq is
less than 100 KHz (And because we have freq unit in KHz in cpufreq, its exact
value is less than 100). Lets say its 90.

So, we will get into your "if" block now and would set freq_target to 90 - 5000.

So its broken, isn't it.

Rest is fine.
