Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"First of all, the adaptive voltage scaling (AVS) drivers go to new
platform-specific locations as planned (this part was reported to have
merge conflicts against the new arm-soc updates in linux-next).
In addition to that, there are some fixes (intel_idle, intel_pstate,
RAPL, acpi_cpufreq), the addition of on/off notifiers and idle state
accounting support to the generic power domains (genpd) code and some
janitorial changes all over.
Specifics:
- Move the AVS drivers to new platform-specific locations and get rid
of the drivers/power/avs directory (Ulf Hansson).
- Add on/off notifiers and idle state accounting support to the
generic power domains (genpd) framework (Ulf Hansson, Lina Iyer).
- Ulf will maintain the PM domain part of cpuidle-psci (Ulf Hansson).
- Make intel_idle disregard ACPI _CST if it cannot use the data
returned by that method (Mel Gorman).
- Modify intel_pstate to avoid leaving useless sysfs directory
structure behind if it cannot be registered (Chen Yu).
- Fix domain detection in the RAPL power capping driver and prevent
it from failing to enumerate the Psys RAPL domain (Zhang Rui).
- Allow acpi-cpufreq to use ACPI _PSD information with Family 19 and
later AMD chips (Wei Huang).
- Update the driver assumptions comment in intel_idle and fix a
kerneldoc comment in the runtime PM framework (Alexander Monakov,
Bean Huo).
- Avoid unnecessary resets of the cached frequency in the schedutil
cpufreq governor to reduce overhead (Wei Wang).
- Clean up the cpufreq core a bit (Viresh Kumar).
- Make assorted minor janitorial changes (Daniel Lezcano, Geert
Uytterhoeven, Hubert Jasudowicz, Tom Rix).
- Clean up and optimize the cpupower utility somewhat (Colin Ian
King, Martin Kaistra)"

The cpupower package consists of the following elements:
requirements
------------
On x86 pciutils is needed at runtime (-lpci).
For compilation pciutils-devel (pci/pci.h) and a gcc version
providing cpuid.h is needed.
For both it's not explicitly checked for (yet).
libcpupower
----------
"libcpupower" is a library which offers a unified access method for userspace
tools and programs to the cpufreq core and drivers in the Linux kernel. This
allows for code reduction in userspace tools, a clean implementation of
the interaction to the cpufreq core, and support for both the sysfs and proc
interfaces [depending on configuration, see below].
compilation and installation
----------------------------
make
su
make install
should suffice on most systems. It builds libcpupower to put in
/usr/lib; cpupower, cpufreq-bench_plot.sh to put in /usr/bin; and
cpufreq-bench to put in /usr/sbin. If you want to set up the paths
differently and/or want to configure the package to your specific
needs, you need to open "Makefile" with an editor of your choice and
edit the block marked CONFIGURATION.
THANKS
------
Many thanks to Mattia Dongili who wrote the autotoolization and
libtoolization, the manpages and the italian language file for cpupower;
to Dave Jones for his feedback and his dump_psb tool; to Bruno Ducrot for his
powernow-k8-decode and intel_gsic tools as well as the french language file;
and to various others commenting on the previous (pre-)releases of
cpupower.
