I agree.

The common errors I ran into were these ones without the patch:

+ gov=userspace
+ [ -e /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/userspace ]
+ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/userspace/sampling_rate
cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/userspace/sampling_rate: No such
file or directory
+ sampling_rate=

I'll see what results I get on Ubuntu and Android with ondemand and
interactive respectively.
