Have you tried performance governor ? Freq should move to highest freq
there for sure.

How do you check the frequency ? Without significant load you won't
see the freq movement.

Also have a look at the policy0/stats/ directory. It will show the
details of freq switching properly, include the transitions that have
happened.
