Subject: cpufreq / intel_pstate: Do not load on VM that does not report max P state.
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d3929b832833db870af72479666fa4e4d043e02e;p=linux-beck.git

cpufreq / intel_pstate: Do not load on VM that does not report max P state.

It seems some VMs support the P state MSRs but return zeros. Fail
gracefully if we are running in this environment.
