Newer BKDG[1] versions recommend a different initialization value for
the running average range register in the northbridge. This improves
the power reading by avoiding counter saturations resulting in bogus
values for anything below about 80% of TDP power consumption.
Updated BIOSes will have this new value set up from the beginning,
but meanwhile we correct this value ourselves.
This needs to be done on all northbridges, even on those where the
driver itself does not register at.
This fixes the driver on all current machines to provide proper
values for idle load.

On high CPU load the accumulating values in the running_avg_cap
register are very low (below 10), so averaging them too early leads
to unnecessary poor output resolution. Since we pretend to output
micro-Watt we better keep all the bits we have as long as possible.

Wrong bit was used for sign extension which caused wrong end results.
Thanks to Andre for spotting this bug.

This CPU family provides NB register values to gather following
TDP information
* ProcessorPwrWatts: Specifies in Watts the maximum amount of power
the processor can support.
* CurrPwrWatts: Specifies in Watts the current amount of power being
consumed by the processor.
This driver provides
* power1_crit (ProcessorPwrWatts)
* power1_input (CurrPwrWatts)
