Correct misunderstanding of hw.est.strict

Browse Source 
Setting strict causes a validation of the requested
value vs the value currently running after a frequency
change is requested.

Change applicability to be single core not i386.

Thanks to mav@ for reviewing and commenting on my
lack of understanding.
