Subject: [PATCH 3/4] intel_pstate: delete scheduler hook in HWP mode

From: Len Brown <len.brown@...el.com>

The cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq sysfs attribute is now provided by
shared x86 cpufreq code on modern x86 systems, including
all systems supported by the intel_pstate driver.

In HWP mode, maintaining that value was the sole purpose of
the scheduler hook, intel_pstate_update_util_hwp(),
so it can now be removed.
