[ Upstream commit ba1edb9a5125a617d612f98eead14b9b84e75c3a ]

The following warning was triggered after resumed from S3 -
if all the nonboot CPUs were put offline before suspend:

This is because if there's only one online CPU, the MSR_PM_ENABLE
(package wide)can not be enabled after resumed, due to
intel_pstate_hwp_enable() will only be invoked on AP's online
process after resumed - if there's no AP online, the HWP remains
disabled after resumed (BIOS has disabled it in S3). Then if
there comes a _PPC change notification which touches HWP register
during this stage, the warning is triggered.

Since we don't call acpi_processor_register_performance() when
HWP is enabled, the pr->performance will be NULL. When this is
NULL we don't need to do _PPC change notification.
