Subject: [CPUFREQ] Allow ondemand stepping to be changed by user.
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1206aaac285904e3e3995eecbf4129b6555a8973;p=linux-beck.git

[CPUFREQ] Allow ondemand stepping to be changed by user.

Adds support so that the cpufreq change stepping is no longer fixed at 5% and
can be changed dynamically by the user
