Let's do this inside governor_passive.c, you already have
the DEVFREQ_GOV_STOP signal. This may be called more frequently
because the START-STOP pair has wider usage than add-remove pair.
However, still, it's ok to be detached during the "STOP"ed but not
removed state.

Same as above. We can reuse DEVFREQ_GOV_START for this.
With DEVFREQ_GOV_START/STOP, we can entirely remove any modifications
in the devfreq.c, governor.h, devfreq.h.

Besides, such an approach removed the need for the patch 05/21.
We no longer (or yet) need "governor type".

Let's handle DEVFREQ_GOV_START/STOP event here.

Let's not use .type enum, yet. We don't this this. At least for now.
