Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: amd-pstate: Set a fallback policy based on preferred_profile
Git-commit: 32f80b9adfdb43f8af248596724f59dde938a190
Patch-mainline: v6.5-rc1
References: bsc#1212445
If a user's configuration doesn't explicitly specify the cpufreq
scaling governor then the code currently explicitly falls back to
'powersave'. This default is fine for notebooks and desktops, but
servers and undefined machines should default to 'performance'.
Look at the 'preferred_profile' field from the FADT to set this
policy accordingly.
