As the commit message suggests, per-arch cpufreq drivers are moving to drivers/cpufreq/
So far, I've only moved the x86 ones.  As a side-effect of this, the 
source "drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig" is no longer a per-arch thing, as it now gets
included from kernel/power/Kconfig.

I suspect the warnings are happening because on the unconverted archs, drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig
is now getting included twice.  If you kill the 'source' line in kernel/power/Kconfig,
does this make things go back to normal ?  (Check that cpufreq still shows up in
the resulting config afterwards)

If so, I'll make that change after all archs have moved their drivers.

	Dave
