[RFC PATCH 4/4] sched/fair: call cpufreq hook for remote wakeups

[Steve Muckle <steve.muckle@linaro.org>]

Without calling the cpufreq hook for a remote wakeup it is possible
for such a wakeup to go unnoticed by cpufreq on the target CPU for up
to a full tick. This can occur if the target CPU is running a
CPU-bound task.
