x86, cpufreq: Add APERF/MPERF support for AMD processors
Starting with model 10 of Family 0x10, AMD processors may have support for APERF/MPERF. Add support for identifying it and using it within cpufreq. Move the APERF/MPERF functions out of the acpi-cpufreq code and into their own file so they can easily be shared.
