Thanks and good to know, I will enhance the commit message in V2.

I aligned with highest_perf type in get_max_boost_ratio() funciton.

Will clean the "else" and "default" branches in V2.

OK, I will modify to abstract this function in amd.c and then call it both
on smpboot and acpi-cpufreq.

Yes, I should abstract the funciton in amd.c and avoid the repeated
implementation.
