cpufreq: Avoid unnecessary frequency updates due to mismatch

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit f55ae08c89 ]

For some platforms, the frequency returned by hardware may be slightly
different from what is provided in the frequency table. For example,
hardware may return 499 MHz instead of 500 MHz. In such cases it is
better to avoid getting into unnecessary frequency updates, as we may
end up switching policy->cur between the two and sending unnecessary
pre/post update notifications, etc.

This patch has chosen allows the hardware frequency and table frequency
to deviate by 1 MHz for now, we may want to increase it a bit later on
if someone still complains.
