 More power management updates for v4.9-rc1
 
  - Fix two cpufreq regressions causing undesirable changes in
    behavior to appear (one in the core and one in the conservative
    governor) introduced during the 4.8 cycle (Aaro Koskinen, Rafael
    Wysocki).
 
  - Fix the way the intel_pstate driver accesses MSRs related to the
    hardware-managed P-states (HWP) feature during the initialization
    which currently is unsafe and may cause the processor to generate
    a general protection fault (Srinivas Pandruvada).
 
  - Rework the intel_pstate's P-state selection algorithm used on Atom
    processors to avoid known problems with the current one and to
    make the computation more straightforward, which also happens to
    improve performance in multiple benchmarks a bit (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Improve two comments in the intel_pstate driver (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Fix the desired performance computation in the CPPC cpufreq driver
    (Hoan Tran).
 
  - Fix the devfreq core to avoid printing misleading error messages
    in some cases (Tobias Jakobi).
 
  - Fix the error code path in devfreq_add_device() to use proper
    locking around list modifications (Axel Lin).
 
  - Fix a build failure and remove a couple of redundant updates of
    variables in the exynos-nocp devfreq driver (Axel Lin).

Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "This includes a couple of fixes for cpufreq regressions introduced in
  4.8, a rework of the intel_pstate algorithm used on Atom processors
  (that took some time to test) plus a fix and a couple of cleanups in
  that driver, a CPPC cpufreq driver fix, and a some devfreq fixes and
  cleanups (core and exynos-nocp).

  Specifics:

   - Fix two cpufreq regressions causing undesirable changes in behavior
     to appear (one in the core and one in the conservative governor)
     introduced during the 4.8 cycle (Aaro Koskinen, Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix the way the intel_pstate driver accesses MSRs related to the
     hardware-managed P-states (HWP) feature during the initialization
     which currently is unsafe and may cause the processor to generate a
     general protection fault (Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Rework the intel_pstate's P-state selection algorithm used on Atom
     processors to avoid known problems with the current one and to make
     the computation more straightforward, which also happens to improve
