Do we really need to cache cpufreq_quick_get()? If it's really quick, why not just use it everywhere instead of cacheing it? Not a comment on this patch.



If cpufreq is compiled in, but disabled, it returns zero, so we need some sort of logic.

Maybe it's better to put it into cpufreq_quick_get(). Inconsistent APIs that appear to work are bad.
