cpufreq acpi: only call _PPC after cpufreq ACPI init funcs got called already

Ingo Molnar provided a fix to not call _PPC at processor driver
initialization time in "[PATCH] ACPI: fix cpufreq regression" (git
commit e4233dec)

But it can still happen that _PPC is called at processor driver
initialization time.

This patch should make sure that this is not possible anymore.
