[PATCH v4 4/4] cpufreq: Use arch specific feedback for cpuinfo_cur_freq

[Beata Michalska]

Some architectures provide a way to determine an average frequency over
a certain period of time based on available performance monitors (AMU on
ARM or APERF/MPERf on x86). With those at hand, enroll arch_freq_get_on_cpu
into cpuinfo_cur_freq policy sysfs attribute handler, which is expected to
represent the current frequency of a given CPU, as obtained by the hardware.
This is the type of feedback that counters do provide.
