[PATCH v2] cpufreq: powernv: Fix the frequency read by /proc/cpuinfo

The call to /proc/cpuinfo in turn calls cpufreq_quick_get() which
returns the last frequency requested by the kernel, but may not
reflect the actual frequency the processor is running at.
This patch makes a call to cpufreq_get() instead which returns the
current frequency reported by the hardware.

Fixes : commit fb5153d05a7d ("powerpc: powernv: Implement
ppc_md.get_proc_freq()")
