To workaround some Windows specific behavior, the ACPI _PSD table on AMD desktop boards advertises all cores as dependent, meaning that they all can only use the same P-state. acpi-cpufreq strictly obeys this description, instantiating one CPU only and symlinking the others. But the hardware can have distinct frequencies for each core and powernow-k8 did it that way. So, in order to use the hardware to its full potential and keep the original powernow-k8 behavior, lets override the _PSD table setting on AMD hardware. We use the siblings table, as it matches the current hardware behavior.
