[PATCH] cpufreq: Add scaling frequency range support

[Pan Xinhui]

From: Pan Xinhui <xinhuix.pan@xxxxxxxxx>

Userspace at most time do cpufreq tests very much inconveniently.
Currently they have to echo min and max cpu freq separately like below:
echo 480000  > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 2240000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

Add scaling_freq_range cpufreq attr to support userspace's demand.
Therefore it's easier for testers to write readable scripts like below: 
echo 480000-2240000 >
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_freq_range
