    Dirk Brandewie 提交于
    Add support of Hardware Managed Performance States (HWP) described in Volume 3
    section 14.4 of the SDM.
    
    With HWP enbaled intel_pstate will no longer be responsible for selecting P
    states for the processor. intel_pstate will continue to register to
    the cpufreq core as the scaling driver for CPUs implementing
    HWP. In HWP mode intel_pstate provides three functions reporting
    frequency to the cpufreq core, support for the set_policy() interface
    from the core and maintaining the intel_pstate sysfs interface in
    /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate.  User preferences expressed via
    the set_policy() interface or the sysfs interface are forwared to the
    CPU via the HWP MSR interface.
