However, now that acpi-cpufreq supports both AMD and Intel CPUs with HW P-states, we want to load it first, so that cases where acpi-cpufreq and powernow-k8 are both built-in and powernow-k8 initializing first, can be addressed. So, make sure that even if acpi-cpufreq gets loaded first, it errors out on K8s and powernow-k8 can be loaded then successfully.
