[PATCH] redirect speedstep-centrino maintainer mail to cpufreq list
I haven't really maintained this driver for a while, and I'm not keeping up with the latest in Intel power management. I get a steady stream of mail which I don't really do anything useful with; the cpufreq list seems like a better destination, unless someone wants to get the mail directly. Also clean up a couple of ancient comments which don't really apply anymore (as far as I know, nobody has ever damaged a CPU with this driver).

* cpufreq driver for Enhanced SpeedStep, as found in Intel's Pentium

* Despite the "SpeedStep" in the name, this is almost entirely unlike
