I think we can  remove these part. It checks chipset 's pci id
(vendor id/device id) after this part as follows;

        /* detect which companion chip is used */
        while ((gx_pci = pci_get_device(PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID,
gx_pci)) != NULL) {
                if ((pci_match_id(gx_chipset_tbl, gx_pci)) != NULL)
                        return gx_pci;
        }

It drives cpu frequency  through chipset register, not CPU regsiter.
It may be enough to check chipset pci id.
