Command output has confusing data, returning "0" on success. For example
|# ./intel-speed-select -c 14 turbo-freq enable
Intel(R) Speed Select Technology
Executing on CPU model:106[0x6a]
package-1
die-0
cpu-14
turbo-freq
enable:0
To avoid confusion change the command output to 'success' or 'failed'.
v2: Remove help output line.
