No need to open this if you don't have a reason to. config_parse()
actually takes a NULL argument for the FILE* param, in which case it
will open the file on its own. Passing FILE* sometimes makes sense for
optimization when we do search path magic...

Hmm, so in systemd so far we tried to avoid abbreviations like this in
exported identifiers. So I'd really prefer if we could use "Frequency"
instead of "Freq" here. Abbreviations and acronyms raise the bar for
newcomers. 

It's not to say we'd never export abbreviations/acronyms anywhere in
systemd, but if we do, then they must be very very well established...

Otherwise looks good.
