cpufreq: intel_pstate: Enable asym capacity only when CPU SMT is not possible
According to the description in the intel_pstate.rst documentation,
Capacity-Aware Scheduling and Energy-Aware Scheduling are only
supported on a hybrid processor without SMT. Previously, the system
used sched_smt_active() for judgment, which is not a strict condition
because users can switch it on or off via /sys at any time.
This could lead to incorrect driver settings in certain scenarios.
For example, on a CPU that supports SMT, a user can disable SMT
via the nosmt parameter to enable asym capacity, and then re-enable
SMT via /sys. In such cases, some settings in the driver would no
longer be correct.
To address this issue, replace sched_smt_active() with cpu_smt_possible(),
and only enable asym capacity when CPU SMT is not possible.
