[PATCH] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Add additional OOB enabling bit

[Srinivas Pandruvada]

Add additional bit for OOB (Out of band) enabling of P-states. In this
case intel_pstate shouldn't load. Currently, only "BIT(8) == 1" of the
MSR MSR_MISC_PWR_MGMT is considered as OOB. Also add "BIT(18) == 1" as
OOB condition.

Shouldn't those bits be defined in these files:
arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h
and
tools/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h

?

By the way, I couldn't find those bits defined in Intel docs that I have.

And then those bit definitions used above.

And then some insight also printed  with the debug message.
At least say "Out of Band".

The rule from arch-x86 maintainers requires use in more than one place
to go there.

Usually, they end up in data sheets.

I didn't understand the comment.

We can.
