I have been using cpufreq on and off since this got comitted and just
noticed a problem now.  I can't really say when it started happening,
but I can say that it happens with a current from about 2 hours ago. 
What happens is when I kldload cpufreq, usb stops working.  If I have
a device that was already connected, it gets disconnected, I am unable
to connect any new devices.  It's just completely unresponsive. 
Whatever the issue is, it does not help to kldunload cpufreq, I am
forced to reboot to get USB working again.  The system is an IBM
Thinkpad R40.  I can give you whatever relevant info you need on
request.
