Subject: [PATCH 5/7] cpufreq: amd-pstate: fix the MSR highest perf will be reset issue while cpb boost off

From: Perry Yuan <Perry.Yuan@....com>

Select the min perf to fix the highest perf value while update pstate
CPPC request MSR register, here we need to limit the max perf value when
CPU boost is disabled in case of that highest perf value in the MSR will be
reset to original highest perf value which cause the BOOST control
failed.
