Thanks for the information. (I did change my BIOS's CPPC config from "auto" to "enable", but error message still.)
But according to another mail from gautham.shenoy@xxxxxxx, my understanding is that my CPU(AMD Ryzen 3 3100 4-Core Processor) does not have this CPPC feature, would upgrade my BIOS really help?
```
I checked the publicly available PPRs of the Family 17h models 0x60
(Renoir) [1] and Family 17h model 0x71 (Matisse) [2]. In both these
PPRs, CPUID 0x80000008 EBX[27] is a reserved bit.
In fact, David reported this issue on Matisse system.
```
Anyway, I will give BIOS upgrading a try.

I think , even when upgrading BIOS would not help, the quirk just for my system is not worth be in kernel :)......
