81da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  CPU Frequency scaling allows you to change the clock speed of
91da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save power, because
101da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  the lower the CPU clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes.

131da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  clock speed, you need to either enable a dynamic cpufreq governor
