Subject: [PATCH 0/8 v2] acpi-cpufreq: Move modern AMD cpufreq support to acpi-cpufreq

Hi,

now the second, revised version of the patch set. I now tested loading
both drivers after each other in several combinations, after two bug
fixes this now works as expected.
I added a patch to move messages from powernow-k8 after the initialization
phase, so it remains silent if driver loading fails.

I also rearranged the patches so that the powernow-k8 feature removal patch is
now the last one and is somewhat optional. I still prefer to have it in,
but it can be dropped if needed. Then powernow-k8 will still support modern
AMD CPUs, but will emit a warning message.

Regards,
Andre

Changes from v1:
* added hints to Kconfig about CPU support
* merge documentation from separate patch into the feature patch
* add deprecation warning
* prefix acpi-cpufreq warning messages with module name
* bugfix: avoid boost init it driver registration failed
* bugfix: fix module redirect request call (was not reached before)
