The 'valid' field is never used in the code, let's remove it.

It is used during the registration. This field has been very useful for debug when need to disable a C-state etc. So unless and until there is a strong reason, i would like to retain it.
IMO if it used for debug purpose, it should be moved to the debug code and if the debug code is not upstream, then that 'valid' should not be here but in the out-of-tree code.
By the way, this may be a debate for nothing because a patchset is on the way to disable C-states from sysfs.
