When the device is of a non-CPU type, table[i].performance won't be
initialized in the previous em_init_performance(), resulting in division
by zero when calculating costs in em_compute_costs().

Since the 'cost' algorithm is only used for EAS energy efficiency
calculations and is currently not utilized by other device drivers, we
should add the _is_cpu_device(dev) check to prevent this division-by-zero
issue.

As the test robot pointed out, please set the 'cost' to 0
where it's declared.

The rest should be fine.

Okay.
I wasn’t sure whether the new patch should reuse the current Message-ID
or create a new one, so I checked with ChatGPT and kept the original
Message-ID for v2. If a new Message-ID is required, I can resend the
email.
