[RFC PATCH 2/4] cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: Add processor to the ignore PSD override list

Booting Linux on a Zen2 based processor (family: 0x17, model: 0x60,
stepping: 0x1) shows the following message in the logs -

acpi_cpufreq: overriding BIOS provided _PSD data

Although commit 5368512abe08 ("acpi-cpufreq: Honor _PSD table setting
on new AMD CPUs") indicates that the override is not required for Zen3
onwards, it seems that domain information can be trusted even on
certain earlier systems. Update the check, to skip the override for
Zen2 processors known to work without the override.
