Qubes testing of HWP support had a report of a laptop, Thinkpad X1
Carbon Gen 4 with a Skylake processor, locking up during boot when HWP
is enabled. A user found a kernel bug that seems to be the same issue:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110941.
That bug was fixed by Linux commit a21211672c9a ("ACPI / processor:
Request native thermal interrupt handling via _OSC"). The tl;dr is SMM
crashes when it receives thermal interrupts, so Linux calls the ACPI
_OSC method to take over interrupt handling.
The Linux fix looks at the CPU features to decide whether or not to call
_OSC with bit 12 set to take over native interrupt handling. Xen needs
some way to communicate HWP to Dom0 for making an equivalent call.
Xen exposes modified PDC bits via the platform_op set_pminfo hypercall.
Expand that to set bit 12 when HWP is present and in use.
Any generated interrupt would be handled by Xen's thermal drive, which
clears the status.
Bit 12 isn't named in the linux header and is open coded in Linux's
usage. Name it ACPI_PDC_CPPC_NATIVE_INTR.
This will need a corresponding linux patch to pick up and apply the PDC
bits.
