init_cpu_capacity_cppc() shares a lot of functionality with the existing
DT/CPUfreq-based approach (topology_parse_cpu_capacity(),
register_cpufreq_notifier(), init_cpu_capacity_callback()). It looks
like that the different ways of invocation (two steps per cpu vs. one
step for all cpus) makes it hard to restructure the code to create more
common bits.

likely(acpi_disabled) ?

There is quite a variety in the layout of the pr_xxx() log messages in
this file. Originally the 'cpu_capacity:' was used to indicate that this
log is from drivers/base/arch_topology.c. Now the GCC __func__
identifier is used. Maybe this can be aligned better? Especially since
the functionality used in the existing DT-driven and now in the new
CPPC-driven functionality is quite similar. Debugging is so much easier
with consistent log strings.

In case a system has CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_LIB what does this mean for the
DT-based approach via `register_cpufreq_notifier()`?

Looks like we rely on:

376 static int __init register_cpufreq_notifier(void)
...
385 if (!acpi_disabled || ...)
386 return -EINVAL;

to disable the CPUfreq part of the DT/CPUfreq-based approach on an ACPI
system.
