Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Override parameters if HWP forced by BIOS
Date: Wed,  8 Sep 2021 20:48:02 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210909034802.1708-1-dsmythies@telus.net> (raw)

If HWP has been already been enabled by BIOS, it may be
necessary to override some kernel command line parameters.
Once it has been enabled it requires a reset to be disabled.
