The cpupower-idle-info(1) man page describes '-f' as the short form of
the '--silent' option and '-e' as the short form of the '--proc' option.
But they are not correct:

$ cpupower idle-info -f
idle-info: invalid option -- 'f'
invalid or unknown argument
$ cpupower idle-info -e
idle-info: invalid option -- 'e'
invalid or unknown argument

The short form of '--silent' is actually '-s' and the short form of
'--proc' is actually 'o':

cpuidle-info.c:
{"silent", no_argument, NULL, 's'},
{"proc", no_argument, NULL, 'o'},

It is odd that your patch v2s are showing up as responses.
Please send a proper patch so I can review - same comment
on the other 3 patches.

thanks,
