[patch 0/5] powercap/intel_rapl: Fixes, hotplug conversion and simplifcation

[Thomas Gleixner]

The driver fails to:

 - initialize packages which are not available at driver init time, though
   the value of that initialization is completely unclear as nothing ever
   uses these values. I fixed it up nevertheless and leave it to the
   maintainers to decide whether it should completely go away.

 - to propagate error codes in the hotplug online path, where a
   registration fails and the package data is freed, but return code is 0.

The initialization/removal code of that driver is a maze of duplicated code
which is more or less the same as the cpu hotplug code. After switching
over the driver to the hotplug statemachine, the whole init/removal
machinery can be replaced by installing/removing the hotplug state.

The total damage is:
