Subject[PATCH v1 1/2] enforce max/min time between commands
Date

In Processor Clocking Control specification v1.0 ,there are 2 definitions:
2.1.8 Minimum Time Between Commands
2.1.9 Maximum Time Between Commands
that means 2 commands' interval should be located between Minimum Time Between Commands and Maximum Time Between Commands.

3.1 Get Average Frequency
The Get Average Frequency command is used by the Operating System to query the running frequency of the processor since the last time this command was last completed.

This patch implements this feature, while old pcc-cpufreq.c didn't follow the rule.
Especially ,at boot time there will be no "last time" and BIOS can return out bounds frequencies including the value zero.
In booting kernel case, we would run querying again as PCC spec.
In normal case, we also need to make sure these 2 commands interval is larger than Minimum Time Between Commands, and also smaller than the max time, although perhaps that is more rare.
