Public bug reported:
While cpufreq support on armhf is available for a while, if support is
compiled as a kernel module, the corresponding module doesn't autoload
by default, and thus frequency scaling is not active upon boot until a
user manually load it (or until /etc/modules is modified to forcibly
load it).
While in Trusty cpufreq was built-in on armhf, starting with Utopic we
made support available as a kernel module, making people think that
cpufreq was either broken or missing in their new kernels.
To fix it, revert back that decision and make cpufreq compiled-in again
on armhf - it affects Utopic and Vivid kernels.
