Subject: [PATCH 4.4 024/113] ACPI: CPPC: Return error if _CPC is invalid on a CPU

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hoan Tran <hotran@....com>

commit 8343c40d3de32ebfe8f48b043964e4ba0e7701f7 upstream.

Based on 8.4.7.1 section of ACPI 6.1 specification, if the platform
supports CPPC, the _CPC object must exist under all processor objects.
If cpc_desc_ptr pointer is invalid on any CPUs, acpi_get_psd_map()
should return error and CPPC cpufreq driver can not be registered.
