When running in active mode the driver for amd-pstate has -epp appended.
This throws off amd-pstate detection.

To detect amd-pstate look for the prefix instead.

This patch doesn't apply on top of cpupower latest:

Please rebase and send it.

It looks like a variation of it is already in your tree as:

a1cf97c2d43ae ("cpupower: Recognise amd-pstate active mode driver")

Considering it was also reported to a kernel bugzilla, perhaps this should be considered for fixes?

If it is already fixed, there is no need to revert and apply your fix.
Please close the bugzilla bug as fixed with the above commit.

thanks,
