arch_init_invariance_cppc() is called at the end of
acpi_cppc_processor_probe() in order to configure frequency invariance
based upon the values from _CPC.

This however doesn't work on AMD CPPC shared memory designs that have
AMD preferred cores enabled because _CPC needs to be analyzed from all
cores to judge if preferred cores are enabled.

This issue manifests to users as a warning since commit 21fb59ab4b97
("ACPI: CPPC: Adjust debug messages in amd_set_max_freq_ratio() to warn"):
```
Could not retrieve highest performance (-19)
```

However the warning isn't the cause of this, it was actually
commit 279f838a61f9 ("x86/amd: Detect preferred cores in
amd_get_boost_ratio_numerator()") which exposed the issue.

To fix this problem, change arch_init_invariance_cppc() into a new weak
symbol that is called at the end of acpi_processor_driver_init().
Each architecture that supports it can declare the symbol to override
the weak one.

"Define it for x86, in arch/x86/kernel/acpi/cppc.c, and for all of the
architectures using the generic arch_topology.c code."

I've added this to the patch changelog and queued it up as a 6.12 fix.

Thanks!

Thanks!
