Tegra's driver got updated a bit (00917dd cpufreq: Tegra: implement intermediate
frequency callbacks) and implements new 'intermediate freq' infrastructure of
core. Above commit updated comments about when to call
clk_prepare_enable(pll_x_clk) and Doug wasn't satisfied with those comments and
said this:

For better clarity just make that comment more explicit about when we call
tegra_target_intermediate(). Wasn't sure if we actually need a commit for this,
but anyway lets other decide if its worth enough :)

I'm OK either way, so up to others.

I would remove the word "so" in the added line; the function is not
called because we don't need to use an intermediate frequency, not
because we don't need to take a reference to pll_x. With that change,
