Description: Parameters for the Intel P-state driver

Logic for selecting the current P-state in Intel
Sandybridge+ processors. The three knobs control
limits for the P-state that will be requested by the
driver.

max_perf_pct: limits the maximum P state that will be requested by
the driver stated as a percentage of the available performance.

min_perf_pct: limits the minimum P state that will be requested by
the driver stated as a percentage of the available performance.

no_turbo: limits the driver to selecting P states below the turbo
frequency range.

More details can be found in Documentation/cpu-freq/intel-pstate.txt
