I wonder why like other instances in the drivers, the mpidr is not get
directly from the cpu. The cpufreq_driver->init call happens when the cpu
is being brought online and is executed on the required cpu IIUC.

read_cpuid_mpidr() is inline and avoids having to export the logical_cpu_map.
Though we may not add physical hotplug anytime soon, less dependency
on this cpu_logical_map is better given that we can resolve this without
the need to access the map.
