Add fallback TjMax values for Intel Atom processors based on Silvermont,
Airmont, Goldmont, and Tremont microarchitectures. These processors
support MSR_IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET for reading TjMax directly, so these
table entries serve as fallback values only when the MSR read fails
(e.g., in some virtualization scenarios).
Added processors and TjMax values:
- INTEL_ATOM_SILVERMONT (0x37, Bay Trail):
- Stepping 9 (E38xx embedded): 110C
- Other steppings (Z37xx tablet): 90C
Stepping identified from Intel E3800 Specification Update.
- INTEL_ATOM_SILVERMONT_MID (0x4a, Merrifield): 90C
- INTEL_ATOM_SILVERMONT_MID2 (0x5a, Moorefield): 90C
- INTEL_ATOM_AIRMONT (0x4c, Cherry Trail): 90C
- INTEL_ATOM_GOLDMONT (0x5c, Apollo Lake): 105C
- INTEL_ATOM_GOLDMONT_PLUS (0x7a, Gemini Lake): 105C
- INTEL_ATOM_TREMONT (0x96, Elkhart Lake): 105C
- INTEL_ATOM_TREMONT_L (0x9c, Jasper Lake): 105C
Not included (MSR reads work reliably, server/specialized chips):
- INTEL_ATOM_SILVERMONT_D (Avoton): Server, Tcase 97C
- INTEL_ATOM_GOLDMONT_D (Denverton): Server, Tcase 82C
- INTEL_ATOM_AIRMONT_NP (Lightning Mountain): Network processor
- INTEL_ATOM_TREMONT_D (Jacobsville): Server
- INTEL_ATOM_GRACEMONT (Alder Lake-N): Very new, MSR works
