Subject: Fix for longrun.c for degenerate case

Hi all,
I ran into a system the other day which had a Transmeta processor, but
configured in a degenerate, fixed-frequency configuration. It crashed
booting Fedora Core 2 test 3 due to a division by zero in the longrun
cpufreq driver. The attached patch fixes this.
