Subject: [PATCH] Fix some x86/x86-64 acpi-cpufreq driver issues


This patch addresses some issues in x86/x86-64 acpi-cpufreq driver:

1. Current memory allocation for acpi_perf_data is actually open-coded
alloc_percpu(). The patch defines and handles acpi_perf_data as percpu data. The
code will be cleaner and easier to be maintained with this change.
2. Won't load driver in acpi_cpufreq_early_init() failure case.
3. Add __init for acpi_cpufreq_early_init().

Thanks.
