While at it, let's also standardize those messages, since they will be
more visible now.

How about "Registered cpufreq driver: %s\n"

And "Unregistered cpufreq driver: %s\n"

(Also, its probably a good idea to have 2 prints here, just like we have for
cpufreq_register_driver() - one with pr_debug() at the beginning of the
function which tells us that we are *about* to register the driver, and then
a second print with pr_info() at the end of the function that tells us that
we successfully registered the driver. We can do the same thing for
unregistration as well.)
