[Impact]
The deepest package cstate is PC9 and fails to enter low power mode during
s2i on Tiger Lake platform.

[Fix]
Intel provides a fix for TGL platform
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/platform-driver-x86/patch/20210305190608.1834164-1-david.e.box@linux.intel.com/

[Test]
Verified on Dell TGL platforms and it works as expected.

[Where problem could occur]
It actually adds a quirk for tgl platform to ignore Latency Tolerance
Reporting (LTR) in pmc_core driver, that makes GBE on TGL won't block the
system to enter deeper PC state. It should be safe for all TGL platforms.
