[v2,4/4] cpufreq: ACPI: Remove set_boost in acpi_cpufreq_cpu_init()

At the end of cpufreq_online() in cpufreq.c, set_boost is executed and the
per-policy boost flag is set to mirror the cpufreq_driver boost. So it is
not necessary to run set_boost in acpi_cpufreq_cpu_init().

There are more cleanups in drivers that can be done though. I will try
that once this series is merged.

"
On kernel 6.13.8, disabling boost by setting
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost to 0 would persist after
resuming from suspend. After updating to 6.14.2, the system is able to
enter boost states after resuming from suspend despite the boost flag
still being set to 0. Toggling it to 1 and then back to 0 in this
state re-disables boost. My system uses the acpi-cpufreq driver.
"

This bug report is filed and git bisect points to this commit.

Rafael, I think the commit in question did the right thing and there
is something else in the driver that is causing the issue here.

I think the problem here is cpufreq_boost_down_prep(), which gets
called during suspend path and enables the boost.

But since the boost was never enabled from flag's point of view, it
never gets disabled again on resume.

I have suggested following for now to check if this is the case or
not:

        return boost_set_msr(1);
