xen/acpi-processor: Don't dereference struct acpi_processor on all CPUs.
With git commit c705c78c0d0835a4aa5d0d9a3422e3218462030c
"acpi: Export the acpi_processor_get_performance_info" we are now
using a different mechanism to access the P-states.
The acpi_processor per-cpu structure is set and filtered by the
core ACPI code which shrinks the per_cpu contents to only online CPUs.
In the past we would call acpi_processor_register_performance()
which would have not tried to dereference offline cpus.
With the new patch and the fact that the loop we take is for
for_all_possible_cpus we end up crashing on some machines.
We could modify the loop to be for online_cpus - but all the other
loops in the code use possible_cpus (for a good reason) - so lets
leave it as so and just check if per_cpu(processor) is NULL.
With this patch we will bypass the !online but possible CPUs.
This fixes:
