From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.brande...@gmail.com>

Scaling drivers that implement cpufreq_driver.setpolicy() have
internal governors and may/will change the current operating frequency
very frequently this will cause cpufreq_out_of_sync() to be called
every time. Only call cpufreq_driver.get() for drivers that implement
cpufreq_driver.target()
