Subject: [PATCH v4 1/4] cpufreq: powernv: Remove cpu_to_chip_id() from hot-path

cpu_to_chip_id() does a DT walk through to find out the chip id by taking a
contended device tree lock. This adds an unnecessary overhead in a hot-path.
So instead of cpu_to_chip_id() use PIR of the cpu to find the chip id.
