Each time a task is {en,de}queued we might need to adapt the current
frequency to the new usage. Add triggers on {en,de}queue_task_fair() for
this purpose.  Only trigger a freq request if we are effectively waking up
or going to sleep.  Filter out load balancing related calls to reduce the
number of triggers.
