I don't like using percentages here - we end up with the potential for 
several percentages to end up mapping to the same P state. I've sent a 
patch that replaces the percentage code with just stepping through P 
states instead. But otherwise, yes, this seems sensible. An open 
question is whether we should be doing the same on _PPC notifications. 
There's some vague evidence that Windows does.
