If CPPC feature is supported by the CPU however the CPUID flag bit is not
set by SBIOS, the `amd_pstate` will be failed to load while system
booting.
So adding one more debug message to inform user to check the SBIOS setting,
The change also can help maintainers to debug why amd_pstate driver failed
to be loaded at system booting if the processor support CPPC.

Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218686
