Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: amd-pstate: Let user know amd-pstate is disabled

Commit 202e683df37c ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: add amd-pstate driver
parameter for mode selection") changed the driver to be disabled by
default, and this can suprise users.

Let users know what happened so they can decide what to do next.
