I can confirm that it fixes the major regression.  With this branch, the
cpufreq directory is completely removed after a cancelled userspace
hibernate (with the acpi-cpufreq problem causing failure).  So it is
possible to restore cpufreq by manually offlining and onlining non-boot
cores.  No more leftover sysfs attributes.

But there is still a minor regression compared to the old (v3.11)
behaviour: Previously the cpufreq functionality would be automatically
restored by any completed hibernate or suspend cycle, since it would
effectively do the CPU offline/online. This automatix fixup won't happen
with the current pm-cpufreq branch.  User intervention is now required
to fix up cpufreq. Which is expected, due to the special handling of
cpufreq suspend.

So there is still a small, small regression here, making me believe that
my "fix" is better until the cpufreq suspend is properly fixed.  But
it's certainly not a major problem to me either way.  Your call.

I'm not going to guarantee that :-)  But I haven't noticed anything
obvious during the 15 minutes I've been testing this branch so far.
