From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

After making acpi_processor_get_platform_limit() use the "no limit"
value for its frequency QoS request when _PPC returns 0, it is not
necessary to replace the frequency corresponding to the first _PSS
return package entry with the maximum turbo frequency of the given
CPU in intel_pstate_init_acpi_perf_limits() any more, so drop the
code doing that along with the comment explaining it.
