[PATCH] Documentation: intel_pstate: Describe hwp_dynamic_boost sysfs knob

["Rafael J. Wysocki" <rjw@rjwysocki.net>]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Document the recently introduced hwp_dynamic_boost sysfs knob
allowing user space to tell intel_pstate to use iowait boosting
in the active mode with HWP enabled (to improve performance).
