This happens with both `amd_pstate=guided` and `amd_pstate=passive`, while with `amd_pstate=active` it works. Also note I've got:

```
CONFIG_X86_AMD_PSTATE=y
CONFIG_X86_AMD_PSTATE_DEFAULT_MODE=3
```

aka "active" by default.

It seems I miss to understand something in the init sequence.

I also don't know if this belongs to the "boost" series or the "fixes", and just letting you know so that you can test the runtime switching yourself and see if it is reproducible in your environment as well or not.
