[PATCH] ACPI / CPPC: Fix negative array index read in cppc_set_perf

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Wed Dec 13 2017 - 17:45:50 EST


If pcc_ss_id is less than 0, there is a negative array index read
before verifying pcc_ss_id is not a negative value.

Fix this by removing the code that triggers this issue.

Notice that this code is already properly placed after the check
on pcc_ss_id at line 1182: pcc_ss_data = pcc_data[pcc_ss_id];
