Matthew Garrett e088e4c9cd [CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod. 
p4-clockmod has a long history of abuse.   It pretends to be a CPU
frequency scaling driver, even though it doesn't actually change
the CPU frequency, but instead just modulates the frequency with
wait-states.
The biggest misconception is that when running at the lower 'frequency'
p4-clockmod is saving power.  This isn't the case, as workloads running
slower take longer to complete, preventing the CPU from entering deep C states.

However p4-clockmod does have a purpose.  It can prevent overheating.
Having it hooked up to the cpufreq interfaces is the wrong way to achieve
cooling however. It should instead be hooked up to ACPI.

This diff introduces a means for a cpufreq driver to register with the
cpufreq core, but not present a sysfs interface.
