Like i mentioned off list, the problem here is that cpu freq modules dont depend (Kconfig) on CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR, yet they do.

Not really. Firstly, some of the cpufreq modules *do* depend on CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR. Secondly, the ones that don't have an existing dependency do not actually depend on ACPI_PROCESSOR in some/most configurations.

I'll send in a patch to fix the real problem soon.
