Hi Liviu,

Regarding your comments about using the C-state instead of the residency,
we based off of the existing mcpm_suspend call which currently takes
residency (with a 0 meaning lowest power).

We used calls (including mcpm_suspend) in the hot plug/suspend path.
 However, it does not know about c-states.  I suspect others may want to do
the same.  Do you know how suspend is done on tc2?

Regarding guest kernels, I don't think I understand the implications.  If
we migrate between cores (having different parameters) in the middle of a
cstate transition, can we have correct behavior?  Wouldn't it be worse to
migrate to a lower c-state then we had intended?

Thanks,

Sebastian
