Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: userspace: Simplify governor

Userspace governor has got more code than what it needs for its functioning.
Lets simplify it.

Over that it will fix issues in cpufreq_governor_userspace(), which isn't doing
right things in START/STOP. It is working per-cpu currently whereas it just
required to manage policy->cpu.

@Rafael:

I don't know why this code was initially added. Please let me know if I am doing
something stupid.

Also, please apply it as a fix for 3.10 as it is broken recently in 3.9.
