perf/x86/amd/power: Do not load AMD power module on !AMD platforms
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.
Fixes: c7ab62bfbe0e ("perf/x86/amd/power: Add AMD accumulated power reporting
mechanism")
