[PATCH v5] ACPI: CPPC: Add ospm_nominal_perf support

[PATCH v5] ACPI: CPPC: Add ospm_nominal_perf support

[Sumit Gupta]

Expose the OSPM Nominal Performance register (ACPI 6.6, Section
8.4.6.1.2.6), which conveys the desired nominal performance level
at which the platform may run. Unlike the existing read-only
Nominal Performance register, it is writable and lets OSPM
request a lower nominal level than the platform-reported nominal.
The platform classifies performance above this level as boosted
and below as throttled for its power/thermal decisions.

It is exposed as a per-policy cpufreq sysfs attribute in kHz, to
match the cpufreq sysfs unit convention:

  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policyN/ospm_nominal_freq

The attribute is documented in
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-system-cpu.

Writes are converted to perf via cppc_khz_to_perf(), validated
against [Lowest Performance, Nominal Performance], and applied to
every CPU in policy->cpus.

On read, the current register value is returned, or
"<unsupported>" if the platform does not implement the register.

Patch 1 of the v4 series ("ACPI: CPPC: Add support for CPPC v4") is
already applied, so this contains only patch 2.

Changes in v5:
- Add cppc_get_ospm_nominal_perf() to read the register directly.
- Drop the cppc_cpudata cache variables ospm_nominal_perf/_set.
- Show_ospm_nominal_freq() returns register value or "<unsupported>".
- Register rollback reads the register too.
- Move range check into the sysfs store from cppc_set_ospm_nominal_perf()
- ABI doc: update read description and add a task-migration note.

+Description:	OSPM Nominal Performance (kHz)
+
+		OSPM uses this attribute to request a nominal performance
+		level lower than the platform-reported nominal. The
+		platform treats performance above this level as boost
+		and below as throttle for power and thermal decisions.
+
+		Read returns the current value in kHz, or "<unsupported>"
+		if the platform does not implement the register. Write a
+		kHz value in the range [lowest_freq, nominal_freq].
+
+		Note that tasks may be migrated from one CPU to another
+		by the scheduler's load-balancing algorithm, and if
+		different OSPM Nominal Performance values are set for
+		those CPUs (through different cpufreq policies), that may
+		lead to undesirable outcomes. To avoid such issues it is
+		better to set the same value across all policies, or to
+		pin every task potentially sensitive to it to a specific
+		CPU.

+		This file is only present if the cppc-cpufreq driver is
