CPU frequency should never be negative.
If some client driver calls freq_qos_update_request with
negative value which will be very high in absolute terms,
then qos driver set max CPU freq at fmax as it consider
it's absolute value but it will add plist node with negative
priority. plist node has priority from INT_MIN (highest)
to INT_MAX(lowest). Once priority is set as negative,
another client will not be able to reduce CPU frequency.
Adding check to make sure CPU freq is non-negative will
fix this problem.

Why not just put 0 in there directly instead of FREQ_QOS_MIN_DEFAULT_VALUE?
As is, it is somewhat confusing (and same below).
