[Bug 1497375] Re: Remove /etc/init.d/ondemand script

[Sergio Callegari]

Please, reopen.

The ondemand script is totally broken for systems with cpu frequency
scaling drivers other than acpi that do not provide an ondemand
governor. Most important its quite arbitrary assumptions cause systems
with the intel p-state driver to have worse performance than they
should.

See bug 1480320

Furthermore the ondemand governor is already set by default by the
kernel on systems with the acpi driver, so there is really no need for
this script at all.
