[PATCH 2.6] update _PPC handling

[Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.de>]

This patch, which depends on the "update passive cooling algorithm" patch
sent yesterday[*], updates the _PPC handling. It is handled as a CPUfreq
policy notifier which adjusts the maximum CPU speed according to the current
platform limit.

Len, could you test and verify this patch, and push it to Linus, please?
