Subject: [v10 PATCH 9/9]: POWER: Enable default_idle when power_save=off
Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2009 15:33:46 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091202100346.GJ27251@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20091202095427.GA27251@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

* Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-12-02 15:24:27]:

This patch enables default_idle when power_save=off kernel boot
option is specified.

Earlier, this was done by setting ppc_md.power_save = NULL and hence
HMT_low() and HMT_very_low() was called. Now this is defined under
default_idle() and hence by setting boot_option_idle_override = 1,
the cpuidle registration stuff does not happen and hence default_idle
is chosen in cpuidle_idle_call.
