[PATCH v2 3/4] cpufreq: amd-pstate: Add a kernel config option to set default mode

From: Perry Yuan
Date: Thu Jun 15 2023 - 02:33:58 EST


From: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@xxxxxxx>

Users are having more success with amd-pstate since the introduction
of EPP and Guided modes. To expose the driver to more users by default
introduce a kernel configuration option for setting the default mode.

Users can use an integer to map out which default mode they want to use
in lieu of a kernel command line option.

This will default to EPP, but only if:
1) The CPU supports an MSR.
2) The system profile is identified
3) The system profile is identified as a non-server by the FADT.
