cppc_cpufreq: Use desired perf if feedback ctrs are 0 or unchanged

Browse source

The CPPC performance feedback counters could be 0 or unchanged when the
target cpu is in a low-power idle state, e.g. power-gated or clock-gated.

When the counters are 0, cppc_cpufreq_get_rate() returns 0 KHz, which makes
cpufreq_online() get a false error and fail to generate a cpufreq policy.

When the counters are unchanged, the existing cppc_perf_from_fbctrs()
returns a cached desired perf, but some platforms may update the real
frequency back to the desired perf reg.

For the above cases in cppc_cpufreq_get_rate(), get the latest desired perf
from the CPPC reg to reflect the frequency because some platforms may
update the actual frequency back there; if failed, use the cached desired
perf.
