RPe is runtime-determined by PCODE and caching it caused stale values,
leading to incorrect GuC SLPC parameter settings.
Drop the cached rpe_freq field and query fresh values from hardware
on each use to ensure GuC SLPC parameters reflect current RPe.

v2: Remove cached RPe frequency field (Rodrigo)

while we are here, can we rename these local functions to mtl_get_rpe_freq() and tgl_get_rpe_freq(), since both these functions return the decoded freq?
Yeah, we can do that.

just return mtl_get_rpe_value(pc) instead of storing in a local var?

Yeah, good idea, I will fix that in next revision.

Thanks,
Anirban

Other than that,

LGTM,
