Fixing LP: #1084262 would resolve this bug.

Proposal: Fix LP: #1084262 and then unwind the fixes here.

This is a better solution than the current config fix committed for the
3.7.0-3.9 kernel build:

[Config] Enable CONFIG_X86_CPUFREQ_NFORCE2=y

The main advantage is a reduction in kernel footprint since the built-in
will revert to a module which was probably the rationale for making this
change in the first place. Multiple built-ins can potentially be
modularised, eg the PCC cpufreq driver (see LP: #1061126) which appears
to have had the same problem.

The cpufrequtils package maintainer would ideally fix this upstream (see
LP: #1084262 for patch).
