Back in the early days the whole cpufreq core was located in one file --
kernel/cpufreq.c. Now, there are several cross-architecture files for
cpufreq present in drivers/cpufreq. Because of this, I'd favor moving 
kernel/cpufreq.c to drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c.

Also, cpufreq.c could be split up into "notifiers.c" and "cpufreq.c" --
cpufreq.c can be "modularized" then. It only needs to be "y" on ARM_SA11?0
and if CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR="y" is (on x86). Is there interest in a patch
for this, too?
