If the pcode read fails, the efficient_freq will not 
be set here and will still have the non-garbage value 
set in parse_rp_state_cap.

I agree the function is misnamed as-is.  If there are 
no objections, I will rewrite the patch to follow 
Daniel's recommendation and move adjusting the 
softlimit to hsw_use_efficient_freq.
