[PATCH] cpufreq: amd-pstate: fix the highest frequency issue which limit performance
Posted by Mario Limonciello 1 week, 5 days ago 
From: Perry Yuan <perry.yuan@amd.com>

To address the performance drop issue, an optimization has been
implemented. The incorrect highest performance value previously set by the
low-level power firmware for AMD CPUs with Family ID 0x19 and Model ID
ranging from 0x70 to 0x7F series has been identified as the cause.

To resolve this, a check has been implemented to accurately determine the
CPU family and model ID. The correct highest performance value is now set
and the performance drop caused by the incorrect highest performance value
are eliminated.

Before the fix, the highest frequency was set to 4200MHz, now it is set
to 4971MHz which is correct.

This comes from patch 10 originally by Perry in [1].  As there is a regression in 6.9
it's pulled out separately from the rest of the series.
This should go to 6.9 final if possible; otherwise 6.10-rc1 and CC to stable
at that time.

One of the reporters on the bug also confirmed this helped them on 
6.9-rc7.  Here's their tag:
