 Hi
 
 Please consider this for inclusion into the testing tree.
 
 This patchset introduces cpuidle infrastructure to POWER, prototyping
 for pSeries, and also does a major refactoring of current x86 idle
 power management and a cleanup of cpuidle infrastructure.
 
 Earlier discussions on the same can be found at:

 v6 -- http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/9/22/180

 v2 -- http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/8/26/233
 v1 -- http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/8/19/150
 


I looked at the changes and they are beginning to look very good. Some
minor comments about comments in the individual patches.

[v8 PATCH 0/8]: cpuidle: Cleanup cpuidle/ Introduce cpuidle to POWER.

Hi

Please consider this for inclusion into the testing tree.

This patchset introduces cpuidle infrastructure to POWER, prototyping
for pSeries, and also does a major refactoring of current x86 idle
power management and a cleanup of cpuidle infrastructure.

Changes in this version:
--

* Remove redundant poll_idle definition in arch/x86/kernel/process.c

* Prevent acpi_driver from registering when boot_option_idle_override
  is set and let cpuidle_default driver to take over in this case.

* Enable default_idle when power_save=off in POWER.

thanks,
arun
