cpu/cpupower : test fails some times about avocado-misc-tests

[vrbagalkote]

I just had a glance over the script and I guess the problem could be on which distro you are running this script. As, I see in SLES there is no file "scaling_available_governors" in the location /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu%s/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors, as this is the location from where script is getting the value to be set, and where as in Red-Hat we have this file. As shown below.

SuSE O/P:

Ohh, I am wrong, if that location is not present, test will skip anyway, I missed the first line of the script:)
