It should be modified so that user could enter a proper number of data
for accumulating data. I'll fix it by using Kconfig.

I define 'busy_cpu_threshold' as following way:
- busy_cpu_threshold = (current cpu load * current cpu frequency ) / maximum cpu frequency
and then users can define busy_cpu_threshold according to
various cpu hotplug policy or environment dependent on h/w.

If busy_cpu_threshold is 30%, show each busy_cpu_threshold with cpu frequency:

Frequency | busy_cpu_threshold
1600MHz | 30%
1400MHz | 34%
1200MHz | 40%
1000MHz | 48%
800MHz | 60%
500MHz | 96%

So, I use 'busy_cpu_threshold' value to judge whether cpu is busy or not.
If specific cpu exceeds defined busy_cpu_threshold, I determine to need
additional cpu resource. and then turn on additional CPU.

For example, I expalin how to get a numer of busy cpu
on current cpu load.

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/load_table
...

1301500082290 800000 61 11 1 43

...

When 1301500082290 ns:
cpu0's busy_cpu_threshold : 32 = 64 * (800000/1600000)
cpu1's busy_cpu_threshold : 5.5 = 11 * (800000/1600000)
cpu2's busy_cpu_threshold : 0 = 1 * (800000/1600000)
cpu3's busy_cpu_threshold : 16 = 43 * (800000/1600000)

A number of busy cpu is only 1 because cpu0's busy_cpu_threshold(32)
is larger than defined busy_cpu_threshold(30).

I can get a number of busy cpu through load_table sysfs.

I got the Per-CPU load by using cpufreq_notify_transition().
when cpufreq governor call dbs_check_cpu().
