powernow-k6: set transition latency value so ondemand governor can be used
Set the transition latency to value smaller than CPUFREQ_ETERNAL so governors other than "performance" work (like the "ondemand" one). The value is found in "AMD PowerNow! Technology Platform Design Guide for Embedded Processors" dated December 2000 (AMD doc #24267A). There is the answer to one of FAQs on page 40 which states that suggested complete transition period is 200 us. Tested on K6-2+ CPU with K6-3 core (model 13, stepping 4).
