What happens is that acpi_perf attaches as "info only" if it doesn't 
have a method to control the frequency.  For example, the control/status 
methods might list a hardware-specific control mechanism.  Something 
about how the new est is attaching is causing acpi_perf to not attach in 
info-only mode.
