Series cpufreq/amd-pstate: Fix null pointer dereference when frequency invariance is disabled | expand

From: "Gautham R. Shenoy" <gautham.shenoy@amd.com>

Schedutil normally calls the adjust_perf callback for drivers with
adjust_perf callback available and fast_switch_possible flag set.
However, when frequency invariance is disabled and schedutil tries to
invoke fast_switch. So, there is a chance of kernel crash if this
function pointer is not set. To protect against this scenario add
fast_switch callback to amd_pstate driver.

Fixes: 1d215f0319c2 ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: Add fast switch function for AMD P-State")

Sorry for late reply.
Thanks for picking this for 6.4 and stable.
I see the patch is not applying to the 6.3-stable tree.
I'll check that.

Thanks & Regards,
