I'm ignorant about powertop release practices, and don't mind whether it
makes the next release or not; hopefully some release after that though.

I'm just trying to give a hint to the next developer hitting the issue,
so he won't have to first grep the powertop sources to figure out what
the error really is about, and then the kernel sources to figure out
who's responsible for creating /dev/cpu/%d/msr, and what config knob to
turn to enable that... The README patch I sent of course helps too.

BR,
Jani.
