Subject: [PATCH] cpupower: Remove FSF address


Checkpatch in the kernel now complains about having the FSF address
in comments. Other tools such as rpmlint are now starting to do the
same thing. Remove the FSF address to reduce warnings on multiple tools.

For context, I'm updating the packaging for the cpupower tools in Fedora which
requires a code/output review. This got flagged during that review.
