Fix warning for:
drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c:731 store_energy_performance_preference()
error: uninitialized symbol 'epp'.

This warning is for a case, when energy_performance_preference attribute
matches pre defined strings. In this case the value of raw epp will not
be used to set EPP bits in MSR_HWP_REQUEST. So initializing with any
value is fine.
