E.g.:
$ ./cpu__get_max_freq
3200000
It does that, as Kan's patch does, by looking at these files:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
0-3
$ ./sysfs__read_ull
devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq=
3200000
$
I.e. find out the first online CPU, then read its cpufreq info.
But do it in tools/lib/api/, so that other tools/ living code can use
it, not just perf.
