[PATCH V2] arm64: skip register_cpufreq_notifier on ACPI-based systems

[Prashanth Prakash]

On ACPI based systems where the topology is setup using the API
store_cpu_topology, at the moment we do not have necessary code
to parse cpu capacity and handle cpufreq notifier, thus
resulting in a kernel panic.

Stack:

        notifier_call_chain+0x5c/0xa0
