3. (major) the scaling up and down of the cpufreq is now smoother. I found
it really nasty that if it tripped < 20% idle time that the freq was
set to 100%. This code smoothly increases the cpufreq as well as
doing a better job of decreasing it too
I'd much prefer it shot up to 100% or else every time the cpu usage went
up there'd be an obvious lag till the machine ran at it's capable speed.
I very much doubt the small amount of time it spent at 100% speed with
the default design would decrease the battery life significantly as well.
