Summary

We find some devices' CPU with CPPC support breaks the autonomous mode.
However, without Kernel Governer, making CPU stay in highest_performace
largely increase the CPU power consumption. As a concession, we enforace
ACPI _CPC check to enable CPPC by default. Also, provide a sysctl to
disable this check.
