Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] amd_pstate: Add ->fast_switch() callback

From: "Gautham R. Shenoy" <gautham.shenoy@....com>

Schedutil normally calls the adjust_perf callback for drivers with
adjust_perf callback available and fast_switch_possible flag set.
However, when frequency invariance is disabled, schedutil tries to
invoke fast_switch. So, there is a chance of kernel crash if this
function pointer is not set. To protect against this scenario add
fast_switch callback in amd_pstate driver.

Fixes: 1d215f0319c2 ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: Add fast switch function for AMD P-State")
