@Viresh,
I implement v3 patch for load_table debugfs file. As you suggested, v3 pach include
old/new frequency data. But, I don't add additional function to minimize dependency
among cpufreq core functions. And then I use CPUFREQ_LOADCHECK and CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE
notification to collect cpu data(time, old/new frequency, CPUs load).

Please review v3 patch for load_table debugfs file. Thanks.

Best Regards,
Chanwoo Choi
