cpupower: Unify cpupower-frequency-* manpages cpupower-frequency-* manpages slightly differed from the others. - Use uppercase letters in the title - Show cpupower Manual in the header - Remove Mattia from left down corner of the manpage, he is already listed as author - Remove --help, prints this message -> not needed Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.LP
A small tool which prints out cpufreq information helpful to developers and interested users.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.LP
.TP
\fB\-e\fR \fB\-\-debug\fR
Prints out debug information.
.TP
\fB\-f\fR \fB\-\-freq\fR
Get frequency the CPU currently runs at, according to the cpufreq core.
.TP
\fB\-w\fR \fB\-\-hwfreq\fR
Get frequency the CPU currently runs at, by reading it from hardware (only available to root).
.TP

.SH "REMARKS"
.LP
By default only values of core zero are displayed. How to display settings of
other cores is described in the cpupower(1) manpage in the \-\-cpu option section.
.LP
You can't specify more than one of the output specific options \-o \-e \-a \-g \-p \-d \-l \-w \-f \-y.
.LP
You also can't specify the \-o option combined with the \-c option.
