BFS 0.371 test3

TL;DR I'd like more testing.

Here's a new lightly tested patch trying another simpler and cheaper approach to improving throughput with scaling CPU frequency governors (like ondemand) without the flaws of the previous approach.

I've enabled the changes at all times, not just when the ondemand governor is run, but again this change only affects SMP users. This test patch is only lightly tested, but I'd appreciate it if people gave it a bit of a run. Apply to a BFS 363 based kernel such as 2.6.38-ck1.

Too tired to describe what it does right now... Zzzz
