Add sysfs interfaces for CPPC autonomous selection in the cppc_cpufreq
driver.

The patch series is organized in two parts:

  - patch 1-5 refactor out the general CPPC register get and set functions
    in cppc_acpi.c

  - patches 6-8 expose sysfs files for users to control CPPC autonomous
    selection when supported

Changelog:

v5:

  - add more explanation to the commit logs and comments
  - change REG_OPTIONAL from bin to hex
  - split patch 2 into 3 smaller patches
  - remove CPPC_REG_VAL_READ() and CPPC_REG_VAL_WRITE() macros
  - move the modification part in patch 5 into a separate patch
  - rename the sysfs file from "energy_perf" to
    energy_performance_preference_val

v4:

  - add REG_OPTIONAL and IS_OPTIONAL_CPC_REG to judge if a cpc register is
    an optional one
  - check whether the register is optional before CPC_SUPPORTED check in
    cppc_get_reg_val() and cppc_set_reg_val()
  - check the register's type in cppc_set_reg_val()
  - add macros to generally implement registers getting and setting
    functions
  - move some logic codes from cppc_cpufreq.c to cppc_acpi.c
  - replace cppc_get_auto_sel_caps() by cppc_get_auto_sel()

v3:

  - change cppc_get_reg() and cppc_set_reg() name to cppc_get_reg_val() and
    cppc_set_reg_val()
  - extract cppc_get_reg_val_in_pcc() and cppc_set_reg_val_in_pcc()
  - return the result of cpc_read() in cppc_get_reg_val()
  - add pr_debug() in cppc_get_reg_val_in_pcc() when pcc_ss_id < 0
  - rename 'cpunum' to 'cpu' in cppc_get_reg_val()
  - move some macros from drivers/cpufreq/cppc_cpufreq.c to
    include/acpi/cppc_acpi.h with a CPPC_XXX prefix

v2:

  - fix some incorrect placeholder
  - change kstrtoul to kstrtobool in store_auto_select

Gentle ping.

OK, so I'm wondering how this is related to the patch series at

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20250211103737.447704-1-sumitg@xxxxxxxxxx/

This series refactors some cppc_acpi ABIs and supports cppc autonomous
selection with sysfs files in cpufreq policy.  Later, [1] proposed another
design with different user interfaces.We will discuss and reach a consensus
with regard to this.

However, as mentioned in [1], patch 1-7 in this series (the cppc_acpi part)
are not related to user interfaces, so can be reviewed and applied
separately.  I can also send patch 1-7 as a new thread if preferred.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20250211103737.447704-1-sumitg@xxxxxxxxxx/

I tried the patchset on a platform which doesn't implement CPC and everything worked well.
As Lifeng said,
  PATCH v5 8/8] cpufreq: CPPC: Support for autonomous selection in cppc_cpufreq
seems to be still in discussion, but for patches 1-7 FWIW:
