Thanks to your reminder. It should not be overflow. The maximum power
consumption of processor (AMD CZ and future 15h) is about 15 Watts =
15,000,000 uWatts = 0xE4E1C0 uWatts, the size is 24 < 32 < 64 bits.
Actually, the unit of jdelta is not Joule. Because the tdelta is the
loops (cycles) that PTSC counter (the freqency is about 100 MHz)
counts not seconds.
So avg_acc is the average power consumption not the accumulated energy.

If I use "energy", 15w * 10,000s = 150,000,000,000 microWatt-seconds.
Yes, it's large for an unsigned, but suitable for u64.
The accumulated power of one compute unit is recorded at 64bit MSR.
Let me calculate the extreme case that how long does it take before
overflow:
Use power consumption 15w, max power 2^64 = 1.8 * 10^19
mWatt-ptsc_loops, and PTSC freqency 100 MHz:
1.8 * 10^19 = (15,000) * (Tmax/Tcycle)
1.8 * 10^19 = (15,000) * (Tmax * PTSC_Freq)
1.8 * 10^19 = (15,000) * (Tmax * 100,000,000)
Tmax = 1.2 * 10^7 seconds
