It seems that this new module is missing support for autoloading,
causing issues with CPUFREQ_DT=m.

Before that change, CPUFREQ_DT_PLATDEV ended up selected as =y. Now,
CPUFREQ_DT_PLATDEV ends up selected as =m. As it is not autoloaded, it
means that cpufreq-dt is not working anymore unless manually running
"modprobe cpufreq-dt-platdev".

Could you therefore please add support for autoloading?

Thanks,
Aurelien
