The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant accounting. On GOLDMONT (aka Apollo Lake), GOLDMONT_D (aka Denverton) and GOLDMONT_PLUS CPUs (aka Gemini Lake) set freq_max to the highest frequency reported by the CPU. The encoding of turbo ratios for GOLDMONT* is identical to the one for SKYLAKE_X, but we treat the Atom case apart because we want to set freq_max to a higher value, thus the ratio freq_curr/freq_max to be lower, leading to more conservative frequency selections (favoring power efficiency).
