[patch 2/4 MKII] cpufreq_conservative: alter default responsiveness

From: Alexander Clouter
Date: Wed Mar 22 2006 - 04:53:43 EST


The sensible approach to making conservative less responsive than ondemand :)
As mentioned in patch [1/4]. We do not want conservative to shoot through
all the frequencies, its point (by default) is to slowly move through them.

By default its ten times less responsive.
