We now use Soc generic cpufreq-cpu0 driver using DT entries.
However to allow cpufreq-cpu0 and omap-cpufreq drivers to co-exist,
we need to ensure the following using the same image:
1. With device tree boot, we use cpufreq-cpu0
2. With non device tree boot, we use omap-cpufreq

In the case of (1), we will have cpu OPPs and regulator registered
as part of the DT, to ensure that omap-cpufreq and cpufreq-cpu0 don't
conflict in managing the frequency of the same cpu, we should not
permit init to pass in omap-cpufreq.

In the case of (2), we will not have the cpufreq-cpu0 device, hence
only omap-cpufreq will be active.

So, to acommodate both these usage conditions, we fail init of
omap-cpufreq when we boot with device tree.

I haven't followed all the DT binding for opp discussion but
this patch is inline to keep non-DT cpufreq working till we
move to DT only build.
So FWIW,
