Subject: [PATCH v2 2/9] cpufreq: amd_pstate: add module parameter to load amd pstate EPP driver

The amd_pstate mode parameter will allow user to select which amd pstate
working mode as booting mode, amd_pstate instance or amd_pstate_epp instance.

1) amd_pstate instance is depending on the target operation mode.
2) amd_pstate_epp instance is depending on the set_policy operation mode.It
is also called active mode that AMD SMU has EPP algorithm to control the
CPU runtime frequency according to the EPP set value and workload.
