So henceforth, cpudata->highest_perf is expected to cache the value of
CPPC.highest_perf and not the boost_ratio_numerator. There are couple
of user-visible changes due to this.
1. On platforms where preferred-core is supported, previously the
sysfs file
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/amd_pstate_highest_perf would
report the boost_ratio_numerator. Henceforth it will report
CPPC.highest_perf.
I hope there are no userspace tools that compute the boost_ratio
using the syfs amd_pstate_highest_perf/amd_pstate_nominal_perf.
2. The amd_pstate_prefcore_ranking and amd_pstate_highest_perf will
show the same values on all platforms, and henceforth are
redundant.
Shouldn't this be documented?
The rest of the patch looks good to me.
