  [Trusty Patch] intel_pstate: Add setting voltage value for baytrail P

Bug description:
  There's a bug that kernel fails to boot with intel_pstate enabled on
  BayTrail-M which said: Problem only occurs on 4 core Pentium CPU. It
  appears to be a race condition in the kernel that only happens when
  intel_pstate sets the processor to run at it's highest speed early in
  the boot process, so not a intel_pstate problem per se, just exposed
  by intel_pstate.

  This bug is fixed by this patch which is queued for 3.14-rc1 and market for 3.13 stable.

  intel_pstate: Add setting voltage value for baytrail P states.
  Baytrail requires setting P state and voltage pairs when adjusting the
  requested P state.  Add function for retrieving the valid voltage
  values and modify *_set_pstate() functions to caluclate the
  appropriate voltage for the requested P state.
