The "No such device" message means the device driver could not find
any hardware to talk to.  The driver loaded, looked, found nothing it
knew about, printed the message, then bailed out.

This does not necessarily mean that your hardware is not frequency
scalable.  It just means that the driver you tried to load did not
think so.  It does mean that your hardware and device driver are not
compatible.
