[CPUFREQ] ondemand governor automatic downscaling 

[PATCH] [4/5] ondemand governor automatic downscaling

Here is a change of policy for the ondemand governor. The modification
concerns the frequency downscaling. Instead of decreasing to a lower
frequency when the CPU usage is under 20%, this new policy automatically
scales to the optimal frequency. The optimal frequency being the lowest
frequency which provides enough power to not trigger the upscaling policy.
