OMAP and Tegra both iterate through all the affected cpus in the
cpufreq driver and call cpufreq_notify_transtion once for each,
setting freqs.cpu to the target cpu.  The listener in the smp_twd
driver then bounces through smp_call_function_single to make sure it
is running on the affected cpu.  I believe that is the correct way to
handle multiple affected cpus.
