Commit890da9cf09(Revert "x86: do not use cpufreq_quick_get() for /proc/cpuinfo "cpu MHz"") is not sufficient to restore the previous behavior of "cpu MHz" in /proc/cpuinfo on x86 due to some changes made after the commit it has reverted. To address this, make the code in question use arch_freq_get_on_cpu() which also is used by cpufreq for reporting the current frequency of CPUs and since that function doesn't really depend on cpufreq in any way, drop the CONFIG_CPU_FREQ dependency for the object file containing it. Also refactor arch_freq_get_on_cpu() somewhat to avoid IPIs and return cached values right away if it is called very often over a short time (to prevent user space from triggering IPI storms through it).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
