This CPU_CORE_TYPE_NO_HETERO_SUP is defined in the amd_pstate.c, if we want to use it, it will need to define them in another header.
Boris also mentioned that there is another patchset working to export core types in future, we can use "-1" in short term.
Once the core type patches finalize the solution, we can rework the pstate driver.
Firstly, let`s provide a workable solution, then improve the driver with coming patches.
