[ 121/143] [CPUFREQ] powernow-k6: set transition latency value so ondemand

[Willy Tarreau]

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
 governor can be used

From: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@xxxxx>

Set the transition latency to value smaller than CPUFREQ_ETERNAL so
governors other than "performance" work (like the "ondemand" one).

The value is found in "AMD PowerNow! Technology Platform Design Guide for
Embedded Processors" dated December 2000 (AMD doc #24267A). There is the
answer to one of FAQs on page 40 which states that suggested complete transition
period is 200 us.

Tested on K6-2+ CPU with K6-3 core (model 13, stepping 4).

(cherry picked from commit db2820dd5445a44b4726f15a2bc89b9ded2503eb)
[wt: in 2.6.32, we only need this one so that next series applies cleanly]
