a0e5af3cb8 cpufreq: governors: Fix jiffies/cputime mixup (revisited)
This change was made by commit 8636fd2 (cpufreq: fix jiffies/cputime
mixup in conservative/ondemand governors) before, but then it has
been reverted inadvertently by commit 4471a34 (cpufreq: governors:
remove redundant code).

The changelog of commit 8636fd2's says:

  The function get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy in both the conservative and
  ondemand governors use jiffies_to_usecs to convert a cputime value
  to usecs which gives the wrong value on architectures where cputime
  and jiffies use different units.  Only matters if NO_HZ is
  disabled, since otherwise get_cpu_idle_time_us should already
  return a valid value, and get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy isn't actually
  called.

Since now we have only one common get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy() used by
both governors in question, modify it along the lines of commit
8636fd2 to restore the correct behavior.

1e7586a18a cpufreq: Fix sparse warnings by updating cputime64_t to u64
There were few sparse warnings due to mismatch of type on function arguments.
Two types were used u64 and cputime64_t. Both are actually u64, so use u64 only.

4471a34f9a cpufreq: governors: remove redundant code
Initially ondemand governor was written and then using its code conservative
governor is written. It used a lot of code from ondemand governor, but copy of
code was created instead of using the same routines from both governors. Which
increased code redundancy, which is difficult to manage.

This patch is an attempt to move common part of both the governors to
cpufreq_governor.c file to come over above mentioned issues.

This shouldn't change anything from functionality point of view.

2aacdfff9c cpufreq: Move common part from governors to separate file, v2
Multiple cpufreq governers have defined similar get_cpu_idle_time_***()
routines. These routines must be moved to some common place, so that all
governors can use them.

So moving them to cpufreq_governor.c, which seems to be a better place for
keeping these routines.
