Subject[PATCH] Do not modify perf bias performance setting by default at boot
Date
It came out that on certain CPUs perf bias MSR has to be set to performance,
so that the CPU enters turbo states at all.

Better do not try to wrongly adjust perf bias value,
its value probably is intended by BIOS.

This is a revert of mainline git commits:
commit b51ef52df71cb28e9d90cd1d48b79bf19f0bab06
commit 17edf2d79f1ea6dfdb4c444801d928953b9f98d6
commit abe48b108247e9b90b4c6739662a2e5c765ed114
