cpufreq: use strlen() for governor name comparison
Most kernel code using strncasecmp()/strncmp() passes strlen("xxx") as the length argument. cpufreq_parse_policy() previously used CPUFREQ_NAME_LEN (16), which is longer than the actual strings ("performance" is 11 chars, "powersave" is 9 chars). This patch switches to strlen() for the comparison, making the matching slightly more permissive (e.g., "powersavexxx" will now also match "powersave"). While this is unlikely to cause functional issues, it aligns cpufreq with common kernel style and makes the behavior more intuitive.
