cpu: Do not return errors from cpu_dev_init() which will be ignored
cpu_dev_init() is only called from driver_init(), which does not check
its return value. Therefore make cpu_dev_init() return void.
We must register the CPU subsystem, so panic if this fails.
If sched_create_sysfs_power_savings_entries() fails, the damage is
contained, so ignore this (as before).
