Verify for all online logical CPUs that their highest performance value are
the same for HWP Capability MSR 0x771 and CPPC sysfs file.

On HWP-capable x86 platforms the acpi_cppc/highest_perf sysfs attribute is
expected to reflect the same highest-performance value that firmware
programs into the HWP Capabilities MSR (0x771, bits 7:0). A mismatch
between the two interfaces indicates a kernel regression in how CPPC
values are exposed to userspace, and would break tools (e.g. cpupower,
intel_pstate tuning scripts) that rely on the sysfs interface to make
frequency-scaling decisions.

Following review, add memset() at the beginning of run().
This also allows to switch to malloc() for mismatch array.

Address review from Andrea:
1. removal of fd = -1.
2. printing pass / fail only once at the end of the test.

Verify for all online logical CPUs that their highest performance value are
the same for HWP Capability MSR 0x771 and CPPC sysfs file.

On HWP-capable x86 platforms the acpi_cppc/highest_perf sysfs attribute is
expected to reflect the same highest-performance value that firmware
programs into the HWP Capabilities MSR (0x771, bits 7:0). A mismatch
between the two interfaces indicates a kernel regression in how CPPC
values are exposed to userspace, and would break tools (e.g. cpupower,
intel_pstate tuning scripts) that rely on the sysfs interface to make
frequency-scaling decisions.

Addressed both points raised in a review:
1. motivation for the test.
2. fd leak.
