PM / devfreq: allow sysfs governor node to switch governor

This allows us to select governor runtime from the
default configuration without having to rebuild kernel
or the devfreq driver using the sysfs node:
/sys/class/devfreq/.../governor
cat of the governor will return valid governor
and an echo 'governor_name'>governor will switch
governor
