From: Shilpasri G Bhat <shilpa.bhat at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746174

Some OpenPOWER boxes can have same pstate values for nominal and
pmin pstates. In these boxes the current code will not initialize
'powernv_pstate_info.min' variable and result in erroneous CPU
frequency reporting. This patch fixes this problem.
