ACPI: processor: Update cpuidle driver check in __acpi_processor_start()

Commit 7a8c994cbb ("ACPI: processor: idle: Optimize ACPI idle
driver registration") moved the ACPI idle driver registration to
acpi_processor_driver_init() and acpi_processor_power_init() does
not register an idle driver any more.

Accordingly, the cpuidle driver check in __acpi_processor_start() needs
to be updated to avoid calling acpi_processor_power_init() without a
cpuidle driver, in which case the registration of the cpuidle device
in that function would lead to a NULL pointer dereference in
__cpuidle_register_device().
