In some use cases, user wants to enforce a minimum performance limit on
CPUs. But because of simple division the resultant performance is 100 MHz
less than the desired in some cases.

For example when the maximum frequency is 3.50 GHz, setting
scaling_min_frequency to 1.6 GHz always results in 1.5 GHz minimum. With
simple round up, the frequency can be set to 1.6 GHz to minimum in this
case. This round up is already done to max_policy_pct and max_perf, so do
the same for min_policy_pct and min_perf.
