[PATCH] trace power_frequency events on the correct cpu (forIntel x86 CPUs)

[Robert Schöne]

This patch fixes the following behaviour:
Currently, the power_frequency event is reported for the cpu (core) which initiated the frequency change.
It should be reported for the cpu that actually changes its frequency.

Example: when using 
 taskset -c 0 echo <new_frequency> > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed
cpu 0 is traced, instead of cpu 1
