René Rebe 438f9673f3 ACPI: processor_core: fix map_x2apic_id for amd-pstate on am4
[ Upstream commit 17e7972979 ]

On all AMD AM4 systems I have seen, e.g ASUS X470-i, Pro WS X570 Ace
and equivalent Gigabyte, amd-pstate does not initialize when the
x2apic is enabled in the BIOS. Kernel debug messages include:

[    0.315438] acpi LNXCPU:00: Failed to get CPU physical ID.
[    0.354756] ACPI CPPC: No CPC descriptor for CPU:0
[    0.714951] amd_pstate: the _CPC object is not present in SBIOS or ACPI disabled

I tracked this down to map_x2apic_id() checking device_declaration
passed in via the type argument of acpi_get_phys_id() via
map_madt_entry() while map_lapic_id() does not.

It appears these BIOSes use Processor statements for declaring the CPUs
in the ACPI namespace instead of processor device objects (which should
have been used). CPU declarations via Processor statements were
deprecated in ACPI 6.0 that was released 10 years ago. They should not
be used any more in any contemporary platform firmware.

I tried to contact Asus support multiple times, but never received a
reply nor did any BIOS update ever change this.

Fix amd-pstate w/ x2apic on am4 by allowing map_x2apic_id() to work with
CPUs declared via Processor statements for IDs less than 255, which is
consistent with ACPI 5.0 that still allowed Processor statements to be
used for declaring CPUs.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
