It is possible to have a scenario where not all cpufreq policies support boost frequencies. And letting sysfs (or other parts of the kernel) enable boost feature for that policy isn't correct. Now that all drivers (that required a change) are updated to set the policy->boost_supported properly, check this flag before enabling boost feature for a policy.
