cpuspeed, mdmonitor and ntpd are no more extra than NetworkManager

Daemon number is a red herring. A gigantic do-it-all daemon is worse than
a set  of small well-defined services. cpuspeed, mdmonitor and ntpd are
definitively not the ones who should be axed first - they're small, proven
and without side-effects (unlike others)
