This patch series enhances the ACPI CPPC CPUFREQ driver with
comprehensive support for autonomous performance selection, expanded
runtime control interfaces and improvements.

It adds support for below:
- Expose sysfs to read/write the Mininum/Maximum Performance Register
  and update the policy min/max accordingly.
    /sys/.../cpufreq/policy*/min_perf and max_perf

- Expose sysfs to read/write the Performance Limited Register.
    /sys/.../cpufreq/policy*/perf_limited

- When toggling autonomous selection, synchronize the policy limits
  by updating the policy min/max.

- System-wide autonomous mode configuration via 'auto_sel_mode' boot
  parameter. Mode can be switched dynamically on individual CPUs.

- Generic sysfs helper functions to reduce code duplication.

The patches are grouped as below:
- Patch 1, 2 & 3: Improvements. Can be applied independently.
- Patch 4: Sysfs to update min/max_perf. Can be applied independently.
- Patch 5: Sysfs to update perf_limited. Can be applied independently.
- Patch 6: add syfs documentation. Depends on 'Patch 4 and 5'.
- Patch 7: sync policy min/max with auto_select. Depends on 'Patch 4'.
- Patch 8: Boot Parameter Support. Depends on 'Patch 4 and 7'.

v2[2] -> v3:
- drop changes to rename exisiting APIs.
- add new 'patch 1' with generic helpers for sysfs show/store.
- used guard(mutex)() in place of mutex_lock/unlock.
- update kernel-parameters text to 'enable if supported by hardware'.
- disable auto_sel for all cpus if one fails in auto_sel_mode.
- use min/max_perf values if set from bootloader.
- general code improvements, error handling and reduced redundancies.

v1[1] -> v2:
- Move CPC register set sysfs from acpi_cppc to cpufreq directory.
- No sysfs to set auto_sel and epp. They were merged from diff series.
- Remove 'cppc_cpufreq_epp' instance of the 'cppc_cpufreq' driver.
- Synchronize perf_min/max with policy min/max.
- Update policy min/max Toggling auto_select.
- add sysfs to update the perf_limited register.
