[ACPI] Reduce acpi-cpufreq switching latency by 50%
The acpi-cpufreq driver does a P-state get after a P-state set
to verify whether set went through successfully. This test
is kind of redundant as set goes throught most of the times,
and the test is also expensive as a get of P-states can
take a lot of time (same as a set operation) as it goes
through SMM mode. Effectively, we are doubling the P-state
latency due to this get opertion.
momdule parameter "acpi_pstate_strict" restores orginal paranoia.
