cpupower: Fix coredump on VMWare
cpupower crashes on VMWare guests. The guests have the AMD PStateDef MSR (0xC0010064 + state number) set to zero. As a result fid and did are zero and the crash occurs because of a divide by zero (cof = fid/did). This can be prevented by checking the enable bit in the PStateDef MSR before calculating cof. By doing this the value of pstate[i] remains zero and the value can be tested before displaying the active Pstates. Check the enable bit in the PstateDef register for all supported families and only print out enabled Pstates.
