Subject: [PATCH 3/3] ACPI: processor: remove _PDC object list from struct
	acpi_processor

When we call _PDC, we get a handle to the processor, allocate the
object list buffer as needed, and free it immediately after calling
_PDC.

There's no need to drag around this object list with us everywhere
else, so let's just get rid of it.
