Revert "PM / devfreq: Modify the device name as devfreq(X) for sysfs"

This reverts commit 1dc7a902cb2c2461c2d6aa33f58b69c6e056ffe1.

The name changing as devfreq(X) breaks some user space applications,
such as Android HAL from Unisoc and Hikey [1].
The device name will be changed unexpectly after every boot depending
on module init sequence. It will make trouble to setup some system
configuration like selinux for Android.

So we'd like to revert it back to old naming rule before any better
way being found.
