Srinivas Pandruvada 4b747cc628 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Check IDA only before MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL writes 
Commit ac4e04d9e3 ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Unchecked MSR aceess in
legacy mode") introduced a check for feature X86_FEATURE_IDA to verify
turbo mode support. Although this is the correct way to check for turbo
mode support, it causes issues on some platforms that disable turbo
during OS boot, but enable it later [1]. Before adding this feature
check, users were able to get turbo mode frequencies by writing 0 to
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo post-boot.

To restore the old behavior on the affected systems while still
addressing the unchecked MSR issue on some Skylake-X systems, check
X86_FEATURE_IDA only immediately before updates of MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL
that may involve setting the Turbo Engage Bit (bit 32).

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
