x86_energy_perf_policy first uses __get_cpuid() to check the maximum CPUID level and exits if it is too low. It then assumes that later calls will succeed (which I think is architecturally guaranteed). It also assumes that CPUID works at all (which is not guaranteed on x86_32). If optimisations are enabled, gcc warns about potentially uninitialized variables. Fix this by adding an exit-on-error after every call to __get_cpuid() instead of just checking the maximum level.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
