cpu/amd/fam10h-fam15h: Honor CMOS option to disable CPB (core boost)

On certain systems and CPUs Core Performance Boost (CPB) may cause
sporadic system lockups.  This issue is also somewhat known on the
various proprietary BIOSes, therefore it seems to be a hardware
incompatibility when present.

Allow the user to disable CBP if needed.
