You're using -ENOTSUPP here and -EOPNOTSUPP in amd_pstate_boost_set().
You should be consistent with these error codes. That being said I
think the other error flow needs to go. More on that below.

This needs a little bit of unwinding to think about whether it's correct
return code.
This is the call path:
cpufreq_driver->init_boost();
-> amd_pstate_init_boost()
->-> amd_pstate_boost_set()
So if we end up with a platform that supports CPPC but doesn't support
boost we might end up nuking the amd-pstate support "because" of the
lack of boost.
For this reason I think it's better to set the return code to 0 in this
specific place. The others in this function look correct to me and if
fail should cause a critical problem with setting up CPPC.
