All queued up for a post-3.10-rc1 push as 3.10 material, but I have a couple
of comments.

First, the patches didn't apply for me cleanly. I needed to fix up one of
them manually to make it apply and patch [5/6] didn't appear to be necessary
at all (it made changes that had been made previously). Please check the
bleeding-edge branch of my tree to see if the code is what you wanted and
let me know (either way).

Second, can you please CC your cpufreq submissions to linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?
That will allow me to use Patchwork for managing them, which is much more
convenient than plain email.

Thanks,
Rafael
