[PATCH] speedstep-centrino: ignore 0xffff'ed P-States

[Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.de>]

Some ACPI tables contain 0xffff'ed entries for "P-States". This is 
obviously incorrect according to the ACPI specifications, nonetheless
it should "just work". So, simply ignore such invalid P-States instead
of aborting. Thanks to Frederik Reiss for testing (and fixing) this 
patch.
