include/linux/cpufreq.h has

#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_FREQ
...
#else /* CONFIG_CPU_FREQ */
static inline int cpufreq_register_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb,
unsigned int list)
{
return 0;
}


the idea is that you remove the above ifdefs and also the ifdefs around
cris_time_freq_notifier_block and then gcc magically removes
cris_time_freq_notifier_block from your generated code.

Advantages: no ifdefs, and full typechecking even when CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n.


cpufreq_register_notifier() can fail but this code pretends otherwise...
