Power management fixes for 7.1-rc5

- Fix maximum frequency computation in the intel_pstate driver for
    Raptor Lake-E and Bartlett Lake that are SMP platforms derived from
    hybrid ones (Rafael Wysocki, Henry Tseng)
 
  - Fix the description of asymmetric packing with SMT in the
    intel_pstate driver documentation (Ricardo Neri)
 
  - Fix multiple amd-pstate driver issues related to dynamic EPP support
    added recently, including making it opt-in only (K Prateek Nayak,
    Mario Limonciello)

The amd-pstate driver supports dynamically selecting the energy performance
profile based on whether the machine is running on AC or DC power.
Whether this behavior is enabled by default depends on the kernel
config option `CONFIG_X86_AMD_PSTATE_DYNAMIC_EPP`. This behavior can also be overridden
at runtime by the sysfs file ``/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policyX/dynamic_epp``.

one core, ``intel_pstate`` assigns performance-based priorities to CPUs. Namely,
the priority of a given CPU reflects its highest HWP performance level which
causes the CPU scheduler to generally prefer more performant CPUs, so the less
performant CPUs are used when the other ones are fully loaded. However, SMT
siblings (that is, logical CPUs sharing one physical core) are treated in a
special way such that if one of them is in use, the effective priority of the
other ones is lowered below the priorities of the CPUs located in the other
physical cores.
performant CPUs are used when the other ones are fully loaded. SMT siblings
(that is, logical CPUs sharing one physical core) are given the same priority.
The scheduler can pull tasks from lower-priority cores and place them on any
sibling. Since the scheduler spreads tasks among physical cores, tasks will be
placed on the SMT siblings of physical cores only after all physical cores are
busy.
This approach maximizes performance in the majority of cases, but unfortunately
it also leads to excessive energy usage in some important scenarios, like video
