Subject: [PATCH 8/8] intel_idle: create a native cpuidle driver for select
 intel processors

From: Len Brown <len.brown@...el.com>

This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle
on modern Intel processors. (Nehalem and Atom Processors).

For CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y, intel_idle probes before acpi_idle,
no matter if CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y or =m.

Boot with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" to disable the driver
and to fall back on ACPI.

CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m is not recommended unless the system
has a method to guarantee intel_idle loads before ACPI's
processor_idle.

This driver does not yet know about cpu online/offline
and thus will not yet play well with cpu-hotplug.
