Subject: [PATCH 01/14] cpufreq/amd-pstate: Show a warning when a CPU fails to setup

From: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@....com>

I came across a system that MSR_AMD_CPPC_CAP1 for some CPUs isn't
populated.  This is an unexpected behavior that is most likely a
BIOS bug. In the event it happens I'd like users to report bugs
to properly root cause and get this fixed.
