Subject: cpufreq: amd-pstate: fix the highest frequency issue which limits performance

From: Perry Yuan <perry.yuan@xxxxxxx>

commit bf202e654bfa57fb8cf9d93d4c6855890b70b9c4 upstream.

To address the performance drop issue, an optimization has been
implemented. The incorrect highest performance value previously set by the
low-level power firmware for AMD CPUs with Family ID 0x19 and Model ID
ranging from 0x70 to 0x7F series has been identified as the cause.

To resolve this, a check has been implemented to accurately determine the
CPU family and model ID. The correct highest performance value is now set
and the performance drop caused by the incorrect highest performance value
are eliminated.

Before the fix, the highest frequency was set to 4200MHz, now it is set
to 4971MHz which is correct.
