[RFC][PATCH v0.3 3/6] cpufreq/sched: Allow .setpolicy() cpufreq drivers to enable EAS

["Rafael J. Wysocki" <rjw@rjwysocki.net>]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Some cpufreq drivers, like intel_pstate, have built-in governors that
are used instead of regular cpufreq governors, schedutil in particular,
but they can work with EAS just fine, so allow EAS to be used with
those drivers.
