Most of the drivers do following in their ->target_index() routines:

	struct cpufreq_freqs freqs;
	freqs.old = old freq...
	freqs.new = new freq...

	cpufreq_notify_transition(policy, &freqs, CPUFREQ_PRECHANGE);

	/* Change rate here */

	cpufreq_notify_transition(policy, &freqs, CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE);

This is replicated over all cpufreq drivers today and there doesn't exists a
good enough reason why this shouldn't be moved to cpufreq core instead.

Earlier patches have added support in cpufreq core to do cpufreq notification on
frequency change, this one removes it from this driver.

Some related minor cleanups are also done along with it.

I wonder if this series is bisectable? Perhaps I should just go and read
the rest of the series, but I presume there's a patch somewhere else
that adds those two cpufreq_notify_transition() to the cpufreq core.
Either that happens before this patch (in which case listeners will get
two notifications each time; perhaps that is safe?), or after this patch
(in which case with just this patch applied, no notifications will be
sent until a later patch!

Aside from that, all the Tegra-specific patches in this series,
