[CPUFREQ] use dynamic debug instead of custom infrastructure


With dynamic debug having gained the capability to report debug messages
also during the boot process, it offers a far superior interface for
debug messages than the custom cpufreq infrastructure. As a first step,
remove the old cpufreq_debug_printk() function and replace it with a call
to the generic pr_debug() function.

How can dynamic debug be used on cpufreq? You need a kernel which has
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled.

To enabled debugging during runtime, mount debugfs and

$ echo -n 'module cpufreq +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

for debugging the complete "cpufreq" module. To achieve the same goal during
boot, append

	ddebug_query="module cpufreq +p"

as a boot parameter to the kernel of your choice.
