[ACPI] remove unnecessary check in acpi-cpufreq driver

from Dominik Brodowski

The acpi cpufreq driver includes a test at startup which detects whether
ACPI P-States are supported on any CPU, and whether transitions work.
However, this test is faulty: it is only run _after_ the acpi driver is
registered, causing race situations. Also, it doesn't save anything _as_ the
driver is already registered. So, it can safely be removed.
