Move the feature state check to earlier before you call amd_pstate_get_highest_perf().
If the feature is not enabled, you have no need to read highest perf.

Replace the string with str_enabled_disabled() function that is defined as below.

include/linux/string_helpers.h

static inline const char *str_enabled_disabled(bool v)
{
return v ? "enabled" : "disabled";
}
