Because of the change I suggested in patch 3/9, I believe you should 
move the check for

if (!cpudata->boost_supported)

from amd_pstate_boost_set() to the beginning of amd_pstate_init_boost().
Something like this:

static int amd_pstate_init_boost(struct cpufreq_policy *policy)
{
	struct amd_cpudata *cpudata = policy->driver_data;
	int ret;

	if (!cpudata->boost_supported) {
		policy->boost_enabled = false;
		return 0;
	}
	ret = amd_pstate_boost_set(cpudata);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	policy->boost_enabled = true;

	return ret;
}
