Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: stats: Improve the performance of cpufreq_stats_create_table()

In the worst case, the freq_table of policy data is not sorted and
contains duplicate frequencies, this means that it needs to iterate
through the entire freq_table of policy to ensure each frequency is
unique in the freq_table of stats data, this has a time complexity of
O(N^2), where N is the number of frequencies in the freq_table of
policy.

However, if the policy.freq_table is already sorted and contains no
duplicate frequencices, it can reduce the time complexity of creating
stats.freq_table to O(N), the 'freq_table_sorted' field of policy data
can be used to indicate whether the policy.freq_table is sorted.
