ACPI: CPPC: Warn on missing mandatory DESIRED_PERF register
Add a warning during CPPC processor probe if the Desired Performance
register is not supported when it should be.
As per 8.4.6.1.2.3 section of ACPI 6.6 specification,
"The Desired Performance Register is optional only when OSPM indicates
support for CPPC2 in the platform-wide _OSC capabilities and the
Autonomous Selection Enable field is encoded as an Integer with a
value of 1."
In other words:
- In CPPC v1, DESIRED_PERF is mandatory
- In CPPC v2, it becomes optional only when AUTO_SEL_ENABLE is supported
This helps detect firmware configuration issues early during boot.
