Rafael J. Wysocki 17ffd35809 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use HWP capabilities in intel_cpufreq_adjust_perf()
If turbo P-states cannot be used, either due to the configuration of
the processor, or because intel_pstate is not allowed to used them,
the maximum available P-state with HWP enabled corresponds to the
HWP_CAP.GUARANTEED value which is not static.  It can be adjusted by
an out-of-band agent or during an Intel Speed Select performance
level change, so long as it remains less than or equal to
HWP_CAP.MAX.

However, if turbo P-states cannot be used, intel_cpufreq_adjust_perf()
always uses pstate.max_pstate (set during the initialization of the
driver only) as the maximum available P-state, so it may miss a change
of the HWP_CAP.GUARANTEED value.

Prevent that from happening by modifyig intel_cpufreq_adjust_perf()
to always read the "guaranteed" and "maximum turbo" performance
levels from the cached HWP_CAP value.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
