[PATCH] x86_64: Add p4 clockmod

Add links for p4-clockmod driver in x86-64 cpufreq.

AK: Made it dependent on EMBEDDED because the driver is only
useful in some special situations and should be normally not used.

This adds the clock modulation driver for Intel Pentium 4 / XEON
processors. When enabled it will lower CPU temperature by skipping
clocks.
This driver should be only used in exceptional
circumstances when very low power is needed because it causes severe
slowdowns and noticeable latencies. Normally Speedstep should be used
instead.
For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
Unless you are absolutely sure say N.
