Yuan, Perry May 7, 2024, 7:15 a.m. UTC
Introduces an optimization to the AMD-Pstate driver by implementing
a heterogeneous core topology for the initialization of the highest
performance value while driver loading.
There are two type cores designed including performance core and
efficiency Core. each core type has different highest performance value
and highest frequency initialized by power firmware, `amd_pstate` driver
need to identify the core types and set correct highest perf value.

X86_FEATURE_HETERO_CORE_TOPOLOGY is used to identify whether the
processor support heterogeneous core type by reading CPUID leaf
Fn_0x80000026_EAX and bit 30. if the bit is set as one, then amd_pstate
driver will check EBX 30:28 bits to get the core type.

Value Description:
0h Performance Core.
1h Efficiency Core.

amd_get_this_core_type() cannot be merged, it will be called by some other components, for example qemu.
It is better to user separate function to make codes clear and simple to maintain.

Yes, you are right.
pstate ut codes will be modified later
