> 93db1cfcc3  Stephen Hemminger power: fix number of uncore frequencies

The #define for RTE_MAX_UNCORE_FREQS was introduced in 23.07 by this commit
so backporting directly doesn't make sense, maybe an alternative fix.

    power: refactor uncore power management API
    
    Currently the uncore power management implementation is vendor specific.
    
    Added new vendor agnostic uncore power interface similar to rte_power
    and rename specific implementations ("rte_power_intel_uncore") to
    "power_intel_uncore" along with functions.
