ACPI: CPPC: Disable FIE if registers in PCC regions

PCC regions utilize a mailbox to set/retrieve register values used by
the CPPC code. This is fine as long as the operations are
infrequent. With the FIE code enabled though the overhead can range
from 2-11% of system CPU overhead (ex: as measured by top) on Arm
based machines.

So, before enabling FIE assure none of the registers used by
cppc_get_perf_ctrs() are in the PCC region. Finally, add a module
parameter which can override the PCC region detection at boot or
module reload.
