I wrote a driver several months ago.
I'm not satisfied with these sysctl nodes and the driver is only
tested on my system, it should be rather easy to put the code into the
tree.
As there's no automatic CPU frequency changing funtionality, I'm not
sure the code is useful.
However, I don't have much trouble because 800MHz is suffice for most
of the time.


$ sysctl machdep.frequency  machdep.availfreqs
machdep.frequency = 800
machdep.availfreqs = 1800 800
