Even though the driver is located in drivers/cpufreq/ CPPC is part of
ACPI and so a CC to linux-acpi is missing.

It would be nice to expand this a bit to describe the design. Also
IMO it wouldn't hurt to add a kerneldoc comment describing it, say to
cppc_scale_freq_workfn().

And spelling CPPC consistently would be nice too.

In theory, the CPPC cpufreq driver can be used on systems with
nontrivial arch_freq_scale_tick() in which case the latter should be
used I suppose.

Would that actually happen if this option is enabled?

What would be wrong with doing the above in
cppc_freq_invariance_policy_init()? It looks like a better place to
me.

And this needs to be done only once if I'm not mistaken.
