[PATCH] cpufreq/intel_pstate: Change to scale off of max P-state

[dirk.brandewie]

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@intel.com>

Change to using max P-state instead of max turbo P-state.  This change
resolves two issues.

On a quiet system intel_pstate can fail to respond to a load change.
   https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59481

On CPU SKUs that have a limited number of P-states and no turbo range
intel_pstate fails to select the highest available P-state.

This change is suitable for stable v3.9+
