Sometimes it's useful to be able to 'service cpuspeed stop'.
AIUI, the problem is we don't have a way to discriminate between that
use case, and shutting down.
service cpuspeed stop basically just runs "/etc/rc.d/init.d/cpuspeed
stop". That's independent from having a /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K99cpuspeed
script that runs at shutdown. However, the other thing that the stop
does is remove the /var/lock/subsys/cpuspeed file. These files are
pretty tightly integrated to our service system and forces most services
to get explicitly stopped. Might be worth examining how useful the lock
file is and whether *every* init script should use it.
