[Bug 1155877] Re: Unneeded delay of 60 seconds

The purpose of this delay is to ensure boot is done at full speed, and
that we set the governor only *after* the initial startup.  So this
delay is entirely by design, and has nothing to do with the availability
of /sys.

Title:
  Unneeded delay of 60 seconds

Status in “sysvinit” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 dev with initscripts 2.88dsf-13.10ubuntu15. I'm
  noticing that /etc/init.d/ondemand is delaying the setting of the
  governor to 60 seconds with this line: "sleep 60 # probably enough
  time for desktop login".

  I'm wondering about the comment since the desktop login has nothing to
  do with setting the governor. Also the delay of 60 seconds is not
  needed because /sys is already available if the script is starting.
  For a test I have commented this line and as expected all was working
  fine. So I'm thinking this line should be removed if there is no
  special reason to keep it.
