cpu/intel/model_206ax: Allow to configure VR settings
Allow to set board specific CPU voltage regulator settings. The VR12 compatible voltage regulator for the CPU can be configured by two MSRs. Currently a default value is applied, which mimics the Intel reference code and is what the BWG suggest. However most board vendors fill in the actual VR parameters to support OC or ULV board variants. When the mainboard design is too different from the Intel reference design, not updating the VR settings might result in: - unstable system behaviour - limited turbo performance - excessive battery drain - no over-clocking capability This patch adds support to set the board specific current limit for Icc and Igfx. It also allows to adjust PSI1, PSI2 and PSI3, which are powerstates used by the VR, that consume less energy when the system is idle. Test on Lenovo X220 with full CPU load after 1 minute, compared to previous code with default settings: - Limiting PP0 max current below Iccmax results in less CPU performance. RAPL readings show that less power is drawn over time. - Limiting PP0 max current to Iccmax results in equal CPU performance. RAPL readings show that the same power is drawn over time. - Setting the PP0 max current to a value >> Iccmax results in equal CPU performance. RAPL readings show that the same power is drawn over time. - Updating the MSR at runtime has no effect.
