This symbol will be used by intel-pstate and amd-pstate for making
decisions based on what the FADT indicates the system pm profile is.

May I know the acpi_gbl_FADT.preferred_profile value of powerful desktop
such as threadripper or AM4/AM5 socket types of processors?

I have a Threadripper for my workstation, and it's:

[02Dh 0045   1]                   PM Profile : 01 [Desktop]

I am thinking whether we can use this way to differentiate powerful desktop
and mobile platforms.

On a Rembrandt laptop it's:

[02Dh 0045   1]                   PM Profile : 02 [Mobile]

Given Raphael's comments about intel-pstate preferring not to
match "SOHO server" as a server, I am planning to move these functions
into amd-pstate directly and drop patch 4.
Thanks,
Ray
