[Patch-next] Package Level Power limit: fix the generation of package_power_limit_count sysfile.

[Jin Dongming <jin.dongming@np.css.fujitsu.com>]

 I read the source code of therm_throt.c. Most of checking codes for PLN
and PTS are like following:
if (PLN)
....
if (PTS) {
...
if (PLN)
...
}

But there is not checking code for the generation of package_power_limit_count
sysfile. And the code is like following:
if (PLN)
...
if (PTS)
...
if (PLN)
...

I don't think the sysfile package_power_limit_count should be generated,
when the feature PTS of CPU is not supported. The reasons are listed
as following:
1.The sysfile package_power_limit_count is used for counting the happened
time of PLN event of a package. If PTS is not supported by CPU,
IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_STATUS and IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_INTERRUPT MSRs are not
implemented on the package on which the CPU exists.The PLN interrupt
bit for package in IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_INTERRUPT could not be enabled, too.
Because the PLN event for package will never happen, the sysfile
package_power_limit_count loses the true meaning of its existence.
2.Even if package_power_limit_count sysfile could be generated,
if PTS is not supported by CPU, there is not any other source code
for updating the value of package_power_limit_count. So the sysfile
package_power_limit_count is not useful.

This patch is used for fixing it. But I have not confirmed this patch
because I don't have such machine.
