[PATCH] fix up CPU detection in p4-clockmod
From: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.de> Too many users use the p4-clockmod cpufreq driver instead of the more advanced speedstep-centrino, speedstep-ich or even acpi drivers. All of the latter (usually) provide voltage scaling, while the p4-clockmod driver only offers a variant of frequency scaling. So, warn users if they try out this driver instead. Also, instead of using a local copy, use the speedstep_lib infrastructure for detecting the processor speed. Adding the Pentium-M get_frequency function to that module only costs about 200 bytes in object size.
