`amd-pstate` can be compiled as a module.  This however can be a
deficiency because `acpi-cpufreq` will be loaded earlier when compiled
into the kernel meaning `amd-pstate` doesn't get a chance.
`acpi-cpufreq` is also unable to be unloaded in this circumstance.

To better improve the usability of `amd-pstate` when compiled as a module,
add an optional module parameter that will force it to replace other
cpufreq drivers at startup.

v2->v3:
 * Rebase on earlier patches
 * Use IS_REACHABLE
 * Only add replace parameter if acpu-cpufreq is enabled
 * Only show info message once
v1->v2:
 * Update to changes from v1.
 * Verify the driver being matched is acpi-cpufreq.
 * Show a message letting users know they can use amd-pstate.
