Subject: [PATCH 3.14 64/78] intel_pstate: Remove C0 tracking

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@...el.com>

commit adacdf3f2b8e65aa441613cf61c4f598e9042690 upstream.

Commit fcb6a15c (intel_pstate: Take core C0 time into account for core
busy calculation) introduced a regression referenced below.  The issue
with "lockup" after suspend that this commit was addressing is now dealt
with in the suspend path.

Fixes: fcb6a15c2e7e (intel_pstate: Take core C0 time into account for core busy calculation)
