And there's your problem, you're using some unsupported crazy vendor
branch. If you build from .dev, you'll get a perfectly working 2.6.32
kernel with support for cpufreq, cpuidle, latest sgx drivers, dsp
support, etc. I use it on all my overos daily.

I see zero gain in uglifying the current recipe to support crazy vendor
branches that will never get merged. Time is better spent on getting
those vender changes upstream first.
