ACPI: Notify the _PPC evaluation status to the platform

According to the ACPI spec(section 8.4.4.3) OSPM should convey the _PPC
evaluations status to the platform if there exists the _OST object.
The _OST contains two arguments:
	The first is the PERFORMANCE notificatin event.
	The second is the status of _PPC object.
OSPM will convey the _PPC evaluation status to the platform.
Of course when the module parameter of "ignore_ppc" is added, OSPM won't
evaluate the _PPC object. But it will call the _OST object.

At the same time the _OST object will be evaluated only when the PERFORMANCE
notification event is received.
