Yes, we could. I thought I would use the cpufreq public api's from the
header just incase there were any core-internal changes in the future.
Although its probably safe to use policy->cur.

I can put a comment here about this. Basically when selecting a
frequency from the freq_table using the cpufreq, incase the exact
frequency you are looking for does not exist in the table you can
specify "highest speed at or below requested speed" or "lowest speed
at or below requested speed", either of these params work here since
the speed we are choosing will always exist in the freq_table.

If we have a system with cpu hotplug and cpu's come online and offline
for the lifetime of the system, we want to include their statistics
when you dump the file.

If you only care about currently online, you can have a case where
Chrome has been running on CPU1, and you hotplug CPU1, immediately
after you read cpuacct.cpufreq. I can add a comment here.

Although I do admit WARN is much easier to spot, WARN gives a
stacktrace, which isn't too useful in this case and wastes dmesg
buffer.
