Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These fix up recently added features (the Kryo cpufreq driver and
  performance states coverage in the generic power domains framework),
  add missing documentation for a recently added sysfs knob in the
  intel_pstate driver and fix an error in its documentation.

  Specifics:

   - Fix the initialization time error handling in the recently added
     Kryo cpufreq driver (Dan Carpenter).

   - Fix up the recently added coverage of performance states in the
     generic power domains (genpd) framework (Viresh Kumar).

   - Add missing documentation of the new hwp_dynamic_boost sysfs knob
     in the intel_pstate driver (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix incorrect sysfs path in the intel_pstate driver documentation
     (Rafael Wysocki)"

``hwp_dynamic_boost``
This attribute is only present if ``intel_pstate`` works in the
`active mode with the HWP feature enabled <Active Mode With HWP_>`_ in
the processor. If set (equal to 1), it causes the minimum P-state limit
to be increased dynamically for a short time whenever a task previously
waiting on I/O is selected to run on a given logical CPU (the purpose
of this mechanism is to improve performance).
This setting has no effect on logical CPUs whose minimum P-state limit
is directly set to the highest non-turbo P-state or above it.
