The cpufreq works as a cooling device, so the cooling layer should
check and wait until the cpufreq driver is initialized.

Idea is good.

Would be better if we add them alphabetically. That makes there maintenance
easier. I know the list is already mismanaged. :)

If you can add another patch here to fix that, would be good.

I understand that you want cpufreq to be there before this thing, but
i didn't like the idea here. There should be something else like
returning -EPROBE_DEFER, so that driver can be pinged again.
