If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Rafael J. Wysocki commit 95d6c0857e54b788982746071130d822a795026b upstream. Currently, intel_pstate doesn't register if _PSS is not present on HP Proliant systems, because it expects the firmware to take over CPU performance scaling in that case. However, if ACPI PCCH is present, the firmware expects the kernel to use it for CPU performance scaling and the pcc-cpufreq driver is loaded for that. Unfortunately, the firmware interface used by that driver is not scalable for fundamental reasons, so pcc-cpufreq is way suboptimal on systems with more than just a few CPUs. In fact, it is better to avoid using it at all. For this reason, modify intel_pstate to look for ACPI PCCH if _PSS is not present and register if it is there. Also prevent the pcc-cpufreq driver from trying to initialize itself if intel_pstate has been registered already.
