[PATCH 1/2] ACPI: CPPC: add paired FFH feedback-counter read hook

Fri Apr 10 02:41:44 PDT 2026


cppc_get_perf_ctrs() reads the delivered and reference performance
counters one at a time.

Allow architectures to provide both FFH feedback counters in one
operation when that either narrows the sampling window or avoids extra
cross-CPU reads. Add a small FFH-specific hook for that case and fall
back to the existing per-register reads when unsupported.
