This feature flag indicates the full MSR hardware solution of AMD P-States, if it is not set, that means we will go with in shared memory hardware solution. So we name this as extension.
Nobody cares whether it is an extension except you guys. Also, having

So call it X86_FEATURE_AMD_CPPC, please, for simplicity's sake.
Thx.
