est.c table patch

Description
Hello.
Attached is a patch to add some tables to the current EST driver that
I'm intending to commit in a few days if it doesn't hurt anyone. It's
based on the patches posted to kernel@ (but as before, I'm not going
to replace the original ones as I'm not sure if there's CPU model which
does work with the original table).

Hi,
the attached patch does not compile. The problem is that you replaced
pentium_m_n770 instead of adding a new pentium_m_n770_2.
I've got the tables from FreeBSD, so it's not my work.

Sorry, stupid last minute change.
Well yes, pentium_m_n760_2[] in my patch is actually a modified version of
original pentium_m_n760[] with only the first item changed to a lower
voltage, so I'm not using the patch you posted either :) Can you make
sure that there's a difference in CPU performance between 800MHz and 1067MHz
with the new patch?
Thanks.

There is a difference:
patata# sysctl machdep.est.frequency.target=800
machdep.est.frequency.target: 1067 -> 800
patata# openssl speed blowfish
