perf/x86/amd/power: Do not load AMD power module on !AMD platforms

Browse source

commit 40d4071ce2 upstream.

The AMD power module can be loaded on non AMD platforms, but unload fails
with the following Oops:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
 IP: __list_del_entry_valid+0x29/0x90
 Call Trace:
  perf_pmu_unregister+0x25/0xf0
  amd_power_pmu_exit+0x1c/0xd23 [power]
  SyS_delete_module+0x1a8/0x2b0
  ? exit_to_usermode_loop+0x8f/0xb0
  entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x20/0x83

Return -ENODEV instead of 0 from the module init function if the CPU does
not match.
