[CPUFREQ] use max load in conservative governor
Instead of using the load of the last CPU in a package, use the maximum load of all CPUs in a package. Reported-by: Jean-Christian Goussard <jeanchristian.goussard@sfr.fr> Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
