[PATCH v3] cpupower : Handle set and info subcommands correctly

[Abhishek Goel]

Cpupower tool has set and info options which are being used only by
x86 machines. This patch removes support for these two subcommands
from cpupower utility for POWER. Thus, these two subcommands will now be
available only for intel.
This removes the ambiguous error message while using set option in case
of using non-intel systems.

Without this patch on a POWER system:

root@ubuntu:~# cpupower info
System does not support Intel's performance bias setting

root@ubuntu:~# cpupower set -b 10
Error setting perf-bias value on CPU

With this patch on a POWER box:

root@ubuntu:~# cpupower info
Subcommand not supported on POWER

Same result for set subcommand.
This patch does not affect results on a intel box.

v1 -> v2 : Instead of bailing out early in set and info commands, in V2,
           we are cutting out support for these two commands for non-intel
           systems.
v2 -> v3 : Using architecture identification in subcommands to make
           decision instead of cutting out support altogether
