2014-01-30cpu/intel: allow non-packaged scoped turbo settingAaron Durbin
In the past the turbo disable setting (bit 38) of the IA32_MISC_ENABLES msr has been package scoped. That means knocking the turbo disable bit down enabled turbo for the entire package. Sadly, that's no longer true on all Intel processors. Therefore, allow non-packaged scoped turbo setting by introducing the CPU_INTEL_TURBO_NOT_PACKAGE_SCOPED Kconfig option. It defaults to false which was the original assumption. BUG=chrome-os-partner:25014 BRANCH=baytrail TEST=Built and ran both ways successfully.

2012-04-03Add support for Intel Turbo Boost featureStefan Reinauer
From wikipedia: Intel Turbo Boost is a technology implemented by Intel in certain versions of their Nehalem- and Sandy Bridge-based CPUs, including Core i5 and Core i7 that enables the processor to run above its base operating frequency via dynamic control of the CPU's "clock rate". It is activated when the operating system requests the highest performance state of the processor.
