x86/aperfmperf: Integrate the fallback code from show_cpuinfo()

Due to the avoidance of IPIs to idle CPUs arch_freq_get_on_cpu() can return
0 when the last sample was too long ago.

show_cpuinfo() has a fallback to cpufreq_quick_get() and if that fails to
return cpu_khz, but the readout code for the per CPU scaling frequency in
sysfs does not.

Move that fallback into arch_freq_get_on_cpu() so the behaviour is the same
when reading /proc/cpuinfo and /sys/..../cur_scaling_freq.
