PCC CPUFREQ driver does not load by default

[Leann Ogasawara]

PCC CPUFREQ driver does not load by default on HP ProLiant platform. If we load it manually all feature works fine. This bug is created to fix the same.

Steps to reproduce:
Install the Precise on HP ProLiant hardware.
do lsmod | grep cpufreq -- no driver
check /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ -- directory does not exist.
