When turbo is not disabled by BIOS, but user disabled from intel P-State sysfs and changes max/min using cpufreq sysfs, the resultant frequency is lower than what user requested.
The reason for this, when the perf limits are calculated in set_policy() callback, they are with reference to max cpu frequency (turbo frequency ), but when enforced in the intel_pstate_get_min_max() they are with reference to max available performance as documented in the intel_pstate documentation (in this case max non turbo P-State). This needs similar change as done in intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() for passive mode. Set policy->cpuinfo.max_freq based on the turbo status.
