Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: Ensure thermal limits match CPU frequencies

The ACPI thermal management code supports slowing down a CPU when it's
overheating. Right now that's done by choosing to run it at 100%, 75%, 50%
or 25% of full speed. However, most CPUs do not allow an arbitrary
frequency to be set and so will run at the first frequency below that value.
This doesn't match the intent of the specification, which is to drop the
frequency state by state until the temperature stabalises. Fix this up
so it uses actual frequencies rather than percentages.
