[RFC PATCH 0/4] Add processor to the ignore PSD override list

[Punit Agrawal <punitagrawal@gmail.com>]

Hi,

While looking into Giovanni's patches to enable frequency invariance
on AMD systems[0], I noticed an issue with initialising frequency
domain information on a recent AMD APU.

Patch 1 refactors the test to ignore firmware provided frequency
domain into a separate function.

Patch 2 adds said APU (Family: 0x17, Model: 0x60, Stepping: 0x01) to
the list of CPUs for which the PSD override is ignored. I am not quite
happy with having to special case a particular CPU but also couldn't
find any documentation to help identify the CPUs that don't need the
override.

Patch 3 and 4 are somewhat independent and a first step towards
improving the situation with regards to the use of raw identifiers for
AMD processors throughout the kernel.

All feedback welcome.

Thanks,
Punit
