Introduce AMD CPU frequency boosting control sysfs entry which used for
switching boost on and boost off.
If core performance boost is disabled while a core is in a boosted P-state,
the core automatically transitions to the highest performance non-boosted P-state
The highest perf and frequency will be limited by the setting value.
