[PATCH 1/2] CPUFREQ: Enable acpi-cpufreq driver for VIA/CentaurCPUs

[Harald Welte]

The VIA/Centaur C7, C7-M and Nano CPU's all support ACPI based cpu p-states
using a MSR interface.  The Linux driver just never made use of it, since in
addition to the check for the EST flag it also checked if the vendor is Intel.
