I mentioned the same observation in Bug 216070 that acpi_cppc interface is
gone. I just looked my ASRock B460M-ITX's firmware settings. You are right, the
option "Enable/Disable Intel Speed Shift Technology support" has the same help
message.

But I don't know if the bug / current fix disables any function that had worked
before. Based on various online resources, my understanding is "Intel Speed
Shift" = HWP (Hardware P-state) in Linux, and I can see kernel message say it
always works (intel_pstate: HWP enabled).

I can confirm /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/acpi_cppc/ exists before 5.17.2 when
the error hadn't been introduced. But I don't know if things in it were
actually usable. Is there anything I can do to test if CPPCv2 works on old
kernels?
