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.
