[PATCH 1/2] x86: intel_epb: Mention firmware in ENERGY_PERF_BIAS warning

[Paul Menzel]

The warning

    ENERGY_PERF_BIAS: Set to 'normal', was 'performance'

is shown on all my Intel systems, and for a normal user it’s unclear
what to do about it. Change it to

    ENERGY_PERF_BIAS: Set to 'normal', was 'performance' (unchanged by firmware)

so it’s clear, that it might be possible to change the setting in the
system firmware.
