powernow-k8: Add core performance boost support

Starting with F10h, revE, AMD processors add support for a dynamic
core boosting feature called Core Performance Boost. When a specific
condition is present, a subset of the cores on a system are boosted
beyond their P0 operating frequency to speed up the performance of
single-threaded applications.

In the normal case, the system comes out of reset with core boosting
enabled. This patch adds a sysfs knob with which core boosting can be
switched on or off for benchmarking purposes.

While at it, make the CPB code hotplug-aware so that taking cores
offline wouldn't interfere with boosting the remaining online cores.
Furthermore, add cpu_online_mask hotplug protection as suggested by
Andrew.

Finally, cleanup the driver init codepath and update copyrights.
