[RFC][PATCH 7/9] sched: power: Add power driver interface

From: Morten Rasmussen
Date: Tue Jul 09 2013 - 11:56:54 EST


Initial power driver interface. The unified power driver is to
replace freq and idle drivers and more. Currently only frequency
scaling interface is considered. The power scheduler may query the
power driver for information about current the state and provide
hints for state changes.
