Why should we return UINT_MAX here? We should return target_freq, no ?

I have sent a separate patch to provide a light weight alternative to
this. If that gets accepted, we can switch over to using it.

We have 3 categories of cpufreq-drivers today:
1. setpolicy drivers: They don't use the cpufreq governors we are
   working on.
2. non-setpolicy drivers:
  A. with ->target_index() callback, these will always provide a
     freq-table.
  B. with ->target() callback, ONLY these should be allowed to provide
     the ->resolve_freq() callback and no one else.

And so I would suggest adding an additional check in
cpufreq_register_driver() to catch incorrect usage of this callback.
