Should be more like:

epb= [X86] Control IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS setting
Format: { disable | <0...15> }
"disable" - Kernel will not modify this MSR
<0..15> - Kernel will set this MSR to i/p static value

But what is "i/p"? Use whatever word it should be, please.
What do the values mean?
And what does IA32 have to do with this? does it not apply to x86_64?

thanks,
