The busy percent calculated for Knights Landing (KNL) platform is 1024
times smaller than the correct busy value. This causes performance to get
stuck at the lowest ratio.

The scaling algorithm used for KNL is performance based but it will
still use cpu busy less than 1 percent to set the scaled busy to 0. In
this case since the busy is 1024x smaller, the scaled busy will always
be 0, irrespective of CPU business.

This needs similar fix done to turbostat in
commit b2b34dfe4d9a ("tools/power turbostat: KNL workaround for %Busy
and Avg_MHz")

Added another callback to processor specific callbacks to specify a
multiplier to aper & mperf by specifying number of left shifts. This
shift value is used during CPU busy calculations.

Fixes: ffb810563c ("intel_pstate: Avoid getting stuck in high P-states
when idle")
