cpuinfo_cur_freq is the freq read from the hardware and so has such
permissions.
It will mostly be same as scaling_cur_freq (software stored value of same
hardware freq).

BTW, I must be the guy who screwed up your system in 3.9-rc .. I have come to
your rescue now and will try to fix it for you.

BTW, it will be good if you can provide me suspend/resume log with all debug
prints enabled.
