I didn't realize that this patch was also used to fix broken BIOSes.
Therefore, I take back what I said about there being little point in
including this patch.

However I still maintain that *if you have a correctly working BIOS*,
you will not get much of a performance boost from the default tables---
the performance boost is dramatically greater if you are allowed to
lower those voltages another 30% or so, where allowed. Especially at
your highest GHz.

I agree with Dreimann and Schneider that the risk of someone destroying
their computer with the sysfs interface is nil... But I could see
someone handing an op_points table to a friend and then the friend's
computer crashing intermittently and it being blamed on Ubuntu. So I get
yer point...

Now off I go to compile my kernel yet again.
