Previous CPU frequency API is adapted to return max frequency, now new
APIs are added for getting the current CPU frequency.
odp_cpu_id_hz(int id) returns frequency of the CPU specified by parameter
id, while odp_cpu_hz() returns frequency of the CPU on which the thread
is running.

Just trying to imagine system which has cpufreq governor that dependently on packet rate,
and hence system load, regulate CPU frequency in order to reduce power consumption.

In this case your CPU rate is changing very fast and frequently.
When you get frequency with odp_cpu_hz() it doesn't mean that this freq was
the same a 1ms ago or 1ms after. What the practical use-case for this call.
I see only one variant - simply for some tracing tool, to get imagination how rate
was changed in time for instance.

Could you please explain, where it can be used else? And why we should rely on this call in
proposed use-cases.
Thanks.
