Subject: [RFC v2][PATCH 8/9] intel_idle: Use ACPI _CST for selected known processors

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

Update the intel_idle driver to get the C-states information from ACPI
_CST in some cases in which the processor is known to the driver, as long as
that information is available and the new use_acpi flag is set in the
profile of the processor in question.

In the cases when there is a specific table of C-states for the given
processor in the driver, that table is used as the primary source of
information on the available C-states, but if ACPI _CST is present,
the C-states that are not listed by it will not be enabled by default
(they still can be enabled later by user space via sysfs, though).
