If thats an intel CPU, cpufreq is disabled since a few years in the
kernel in favour of the intel_pstate driver ... if you want to go back
to generic cpufreq you will have to disable the intel_pstate driver via
the kernel command line ...

(wasnt there the same discussion on this list just recently ?)
